In July of 2023 and after two layoffs in less than six months, I shared that I was #OpenToWork with LinkedIn.
My post got a little attention and since then, I've built a small but mighty "Super Hireable" community and created some free resources for fellow job seekers. These templates (see below) have been viewed over
3.5k times and even helped folks land jobs in an insanely tough market.

Target specific companies by making your own visual cover letter with my Canva template.
Heavily inspired by my Super Hireable carousel, I thought another way I could stand out in my job search would be to create a visual cover letter, highlighting why a potential employer should hire me for a specific role at their company.
I shared the above example on LinkedIn, asking recruiters and hiring managers what they thought of this idea. The visual cover letter conversation and subsequent posts resulted in:
-
85k impressions
-
600+ reactions
-
500+ followers
-
3 interviews out of 5 made
