VoilĂ la lettre
...bon j'ai juste supprimé qqs passages me concernant.
Par contre ce genre de lettre est un peu un pari...car si le gars qui va la lire est légèrement coincé ça ne passera jamais...si le gars est ouvert d'esprit en revanche tu as déjà retenu son attention. Quand j'étais sur Sydney j'avais envoyé environ 50 cv avec une lettre de motivation classique...résultat : 2 réponses NON, 1 réponse pour un entretien et il s'est avéré que j'étais en concurrence avec 100 personnes lol
. Ensuite j'ai envoyé cette lettre là sur Perth après 5 mois de vadrouille dans le pays, résultat sur 20 lettres envoyés (candidature spontannée à chaque fois) : 5 réponses pour du NON (et à chaque fois une vraie réponse comme quoi c'était un plaisir de lire ma lettre mais qu'il n'avait pas de poste...pas le mail standard qu'ils envoient habituellement), 1 réponse pour un entretien où j'ai donc était pris ainsi qu'une autre réponse comme quoi c'était pas possible mais de venir à une conférence où le patron me présenterait à d'autres boîtes !
Bonne lecture

Dear Madam, Dear Sir,
No no no, don’t throw it into the bin…not for the moment.
Be prepared to read maybe the worst cover letter you had ever received and I may be the worst candidate you’ve ever seen. Not because I don’t have the competencies but in three points my weakness are:
• My visa, a Working Holiday Visa, the one that employer hate but it was my only way to enter Australia and to be allowed to work here.
• My English which isn’t perfect as you can see, but I’m improving and I can read, understand and speak Shakespeare’s language without any problem.
• The global recession making job seeking harder and harder.
[Ma présentation]
I am currently in Perth. I was in the IT industry in France, in an international IT services company named [ex entreprise] and I was working as an ASP.net Engineer for 2 years. But my girlfriend and I decided to leave our jobs, our home and our families to have a year in Australia.
Not that I am bored to see fabulous beaches and crystal waters everyday in a sunny and very warm weather…my goal in Australia is to do the loop of this giant country but also to work and share experiences in the Australian IT industry. That is why I’m looking for a job and I am interested in any opportunity you could have in your company suitable with my competencies.
You will maybe think I am crazy to send this kind of cover letter…but I would say I am a creative, curious and serious worker who can work under pressure. I just add some fun to this letter!
So, it’s maybe the first time you have reached the end of a cover letter because they are often all the same. I hope maybe I could have made you smiled and if you are still interested by me please find my “boring” resume and a recommendation letter from my former employer attached to this e-mail. I promise to do my best and give you entire satisfaction.
Feel free to contact me for further information or just to let me know if my cover letter pleased you!
I am looking forward to hear from you soon.
Best regards,
