A job you like / you don't like / job applications

[Jordi Viloca]

1. A job you like

I've been searching information in three sites for the employment I've got on my mind and I only found information from academies for public competitions.
After almost a decade of daily working in front of a computer screen, I can see more clearly that in the not too distant I would like to hand in my resignation. I am keen to go to the field to work and live off the land and their fruits. This can be hard because requires an important physical work. But I think the benefits outweigh: you can check your work with your own eyes, you can work outdoors cultivating the land and get food with which to live... These are factors that add up to much and that makes me see my future a little clearly each passing day.

2. A job you don't like

Job vacancy to work in commercial sales profesional area
www.yaencontre.com/empleo/

Requirements:
- Skills for increasing sales through workers training.
- Experience in the area of the restoration and hotels.
- Availability to travel.

This is a job focused at sector comercial /sales. I think that for having success in this job must have been born for it. You must be sociable and have personal charm with customers who have to believe they need the product you sell because it's the best. I wouldn't like to do this job because many times you will not believe in the product you are selling. I mean that it's possible you don't identify with the company where you work and maybe you have the needing to lie to the customer... It's a kind of job that is mentally hard and which you have to believe it deep inside you.

Whether you're writing a cover letter for a resume, approaching a contact for a referral, saying thank you for an interview, requesting a reference, or sending email messages, the basic rules are the same:
- Include your contact information: name, address, phone and email adress at the top of every letter you write and in the signature of every email message you send.
- Write simply and clearly.
- Your letter should be one page or less. Each paragraph should contain 3 or 4 sentences at most.
