Thank You to Our Veterans and Great Cover Letter Lesson from a WWII Hero

While we always honor those who serve our country, today, on Veteran’s Day, we set aside special time to say thank you.  Workforce1 would like to express deep appreciation to the men and women who have served to protect us.  Thank you.

We’d also like to share a lesson from one veteran, a man named Steve Hall, who served in World War II.  Read this article by Chandlee Bryan in Forbes.  She shares a powerful cover letter written by Steve Hall as he applies for a tough assignment in the war.  To help today’s jobseekers, she dissects the letter to explain the elements that make it so effective. The article also makes a great story!

And read our other posts with job search advice for veterans and all New Yorkers.
