Hi guys,I've reached the stage with my current work environment that I need to start hunting around for a change. My work environment is good and my work collegues are awesome but I've been in the same role and environment for a long time. The prospects for more technical work is promising but the prospects of promotion and/or lateral movement are almost non-existent mainly due to the work location And I cannot afford to move at least for at least for another twelve months So, tossing the resume out to some local ICT mobs and jobs to see what pops up.I've tweaked my resume but am a bit stuck on the cover letter, I'm good when I have selection criteria to address but I've never really tried canvasing for jobs...in awhile.So help?

- Two were cold canvasing and reccommended to me by friends since they are supposed to have work going soon.
- One rang me back about an interview time; I've called them back once but no return call as of yet.
- The third was for a call center job in a major company, I tried to seriously sell my customer skills from a busy ICT service desk environment and the fact I'm also really tech savy.
Waiting on responses now, just have to remember to be patient with these things. -
