Coolest Cover Letter Ever
Share:
There are literally thousands of different sources that give you advice on how to get a job. From cover letter templates to advice from YouTube, there are plenty of horizons to gain help from. But one bloke took a different approach.
Instead of doing a traditional cover letter, he decided to go the SoundCloud route. By self-producing a music video, to showcase his talents.
Seriously, it rivals Post Malone in terms of production value.
Texas copywriter called Chase Zreet really wanted to work with Sprite and Wieden + Kennedy in New York. The brand colour is strong here, with him representing Sprite with a lemon and lime on a chain, with alternating green and yellow suits.
He did the entire video on a hoverboard too.
So, bonus points for that.
Check him out.
You know what else?
He got the job.
The creative director at W+K told AdFreak:
‘There’s too much emphasis put on portfolios and not enough on the creative enthusiasm of a candidate.
We like it when candidates want to be at W+K for a variety of reasons, even beyond our work. All the better [sic] when they use their unique talents to demonstrate this. Chase made a great ad about himself. He persuaded us to invest in him. He won us over.’
Nice.
