Work It Daily (WID) is good for general job search advice. I found the exercises in the video courses to be helpful and encouraging. I particularly enjoyed writing down my specific goals and using that as a platform to pitch to companies or while networking. It was also cool to get a real person and not a robot reviewing your cover letter and resume. With that said, WID has a specific structure for their resumes and cover letters that you have to adhere to. Even if the content on your resume or cover letter is steller, they will suggest you change it to match their template. The drawback with this is that the only true advice they're giving you is that what you have must match what they have. They suggest putting a "specialist" title at the top of your resume under your contact information. I initially thought that was different but I was open to making the change since I haven't been receiving much success in obtaining interviews. I can't say that technique works or doesn't, but I do know there's no one way to do a resume. The resume template they provide you with has redundancies. For example, you list your education on the top of your resume and then again below. The cover letter template they provide you with at first seems like a cool idea until you notice that even their example is filled with cliches. They don't check for content only that your cover letter be in the same exact format they suggest. I noticed I had some errors in my cover letter but they only advised me to change the structure to their template. I got the same advice during both times I sought feedback. I would probably stick with the free trial of WID or do a month but I don't believe their resources alone will help you get your next job. Job search success always includes a myriad of factors coming together until that miraculous moment of a job offer finally happens. WID can be one factor but it is shouldn't be your one-stop-shop on your way to getting a job.
