Communication in the email World

My intent was to précis this page, and lead you to our book, but the content was important enough to leave it as is.

Please remember, when composing emails, notes, CIP’s, and letters, but especially targeted emails; that we are always measured in our email communication by the same riskometer, as we are in our “audition.” In other words; the hiring manager (HA) is always wondering “how would we represent the HA to their clients after we are hired.”

The below list a checklist you could use before you email the next note, solicitation or response to a client’s inquiry.

1. Use the spell check function on your word system. If you don't have one, buy a good dictionary.

2. Proof read all outgoing information twice.

3. Read all communications for “order” and consistency of ideas.

4. If you have communicated before refer to your last communication.

5. Summarize your last meeting, communication or discussion.

6. If this is a reminder missive then reinforce your background, last conversation or connection, and state the purpose of this note.

7. Please moderate the length of your communication, better to be thought a fool than to demonstrate it.

Hope this is helpful, I know emotions often gets the best of our ability to plan our attack.

Remember you are a product here, a “risk” not a person without an agenda. How do you make your hire a reward? Why would you hire you! If you had an applicant like you, would you succumb to the fear of hire, or the reward of hire?

Demonstrate it.
