Job Hunting Tip. A cover letter is an important link from you to the employer. It helps the employer understand why your capabilities are a good match for their requirements. Make your cover letter address all the job requirements in a job description. Be to the point. The hiring manager usually has other duties besides screening job applicants. Your cover letter has to grab their attention. It gives them a reason to pause and read your whole cover letter and actually scan your resume instead of just tossing it in file 13 (garbage can).

Work Opportunity Tax Credit is a federal tax credit providing incentives to employers for hiring groups facing high rates of unemployment, such as veterans, youths and others. So, if you are applying for a job and they ask you questions about if you are currently on food stamps, receiving welfare, are unemployed or are a veteran, then answer accurately. An employer will receive a tax credit if they hire someone within this criteria.
