Hi, I’m applying to Accenture. Application asks for a Resume/CV upload (no cover letter). Should I still include one or is that not needed?

Also it asks me to list skills, what would be considered too many? I don’t want to make it look like I’m just slapping everything down, but I still want to capture my abilities. Accenture

Thanks

Cover letters are useless.

Have a short bio in your resume. No cover letter. Only list skills you can back up with a bullet point somewhere in your resume.

Include a cover letter to tell your objectives at accenture. Why should they hire you? I think around 5 skills are worth mentioning

They’re not going to read it.

I list as many as you have, whether that’s 5 or 25. As long as you have examples and could expand in interview.

I didn’t use a cover letter, but you should definitely list your skills. In the interview process they’ll ask for examples. Good luck!

Seeking advice: I am a young sales consultant and sales engineer working for a tech startup company. I have 6 years of sales experience. And I have been helping run my family business for the past 10 years. I was intially interviewed for a senior account executive position at a $70k offer. Instead they told me I needed more training and hired me as a Junior account executive at a $50k salary + commission. Today is my 6th month mark and I have done very well. And no talks of a promotion / raise..

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA
