Cover Letter Writing 101

Posted by Nelson Bay Resume on 19 Sep 2024

The cover letter can be a vital part of your job application and is an opportunity to present yourself to prospective employers and explain why you’re a good candidate for the job. Writing a cover letter can be a challenging task, especially if you’re not sure what to include or how to structure it. Here are some tips to compose a cover letter that will help you stand out from the competition.

  1. Customize your cover letter for the job you’re applying for: Each job is unique and therefore, it’s essential to adapt your cover letter to the particular job that you’re applying for. Study the company’s requirements and specific requirements for the job. Use this information to show your experience and skills that correspond with what they’re searching for.
  2. Make sure you use a professional tone. Cover letters are an official document, so it’s important to maintain an appropriate tone throughout. Avoid using slang, or too informal language, and stick to a formal, business-like tone.
  3. Make it short and concise Cover letters should be no longer than one page So it’s essential to be short and get to the main points quickly. Use bullet points and short paragraphs to make your cover letter easy to read.
  4. Show your enthusiasm Employers want to know that you’re passionate about the position and also the business. In your cover letter, show your enthusiasm for the position and explain why you’re a good fit for the role.
  5. When you’re submitting an application letter to the employer, make sure to proofread it for any spelling or grammar errors. An uncorrected cover letter could make a negative impression, therefore it’s essential to ensure that it’s error-free.

It is important to remember that different types of jobs may require different types or cover letters. For example one cover letter that is for a job that requires creativity in the design sector could be more visual , and contain illustrations and pictures, while a cover letter for a position in finance may be more conservative and focus on your qualifications and experience.

In conclusion, a well-written resume can be a an enormous impact on your job application.

I had Tanja write my personalised cover letter and resume, I cannot fault their quality and I'm hugely impressed it was worth every dollar. I'm just trying to make a career change and I feel this resume and cover letter were the missing link between me getting an interview or missing out. So well done to the team at Nelson Bay resumes and a personal shout out to Tanja.
