Here’s another tip that I picked up from a a friend of mine who was advertising for a position, he had received a number of applications for the position on offer but the ones that had arrived in the post in a brown envelope went in to the bin with out even getting opened. I don’t know if this was just an occurrence with this particular person or firm or could this be a standard practice across the industry, but to be on the safe side use a white envelope. There are not many jobs in Liverpool and across the country right now every angle of your job search should be covered, remember it’s a buyer’s market in favour of the employer.
