If you're tired of writing cover letters that disappear into the void, this episode is for you. I’m breaking down why most cover letters fail, and how to finally write one that actually gets read.

  • Why most cover letters get skipped (and what recruiters really look for)
  • The one thing that makes your letter stand out instantly
  • How to start strong with a real story, not a job title
  • What to include if you’re changing industries or don’t meet every requirement
  • The truth about AI-generated letters (and how to use them wisely)
  • How to end with confidence, not clichés
  • What “concise” really means when it comes to cover letters

This episode is perfect for ambitious expats job hunting in the Netherlands (or anywhere in Europe)


P.S. If you’re figuring out your next step, I created a free Ikigai workbook to help you get clarity - just drop me a message or grab it from the link.
