Cover Letter: Resume's Most Important Friend

Posted by Nelson Bay Resume on 29 Mar 2025

The writing of a cover letter for a resume is an important part of the application process. While a resume gives an overview of your skills and experiences, a cover letter gives you the chance to introduce your self to the manager who is hiring you and state why you’re the ideal candidate for the job.

Here are some important points to remember when writing a cover note to your resume:

  • Exhibiting your enthusiasm about the job: A cover letter is an excellent opportunity to tell the manager who will be hiring you how enthusiastic you are about the job and your desire to be a part of their organization. By expressing your interest in the organization, you’ll impress the hiring manager and help your application stand out.
  • Highlighting the specific skills and experiences you have: A cover letter is an opportunity to display particular abilities and experiences that help you be a perfect fit for the job. By highlighting how your qualifications meet the needs of the job, you’ll improve your chances of being invited to an interview.
  • Affirming any possible concerns: A cover letter allows you to address any doubts that the manager who is hiring you might have about your qualifications. For example, if have a gap in your work history or lack of experience in a specific field, you can explain why this isn’t a problem and explain how your other credentials make up for it.
  • To help you stand out: A well-written cover letter can make you stand out among other candidates. By adapting your cover letter to the specific job and company, you can demonstrate that you have done your research and you know what the business is looking for.
  • Showcasing your writing skills and attention to detail and professionalism Cover letters are an example of your writing ability as well as your attention to detail and professionalism. A written cover letter that is well-written will show the impression of a professional and polished applicant who takes the selection process seriously.

But, writing your cover letter can be difficult and time-consuming. It’s crucial to customize your cover letter to fit the job and organization, and there is a tendency to slip up.

I moved to Australia 2.5 years ago. After feeling stagnated in my job, I started to look at my resume again and attempted to update it. After realising it was extremely outdated, I enlisted the help of Perth Resume. Tanja was great, very prompt at replying to any queries I had and returned an updated resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile within 3 business days. I must say the documents look great. Highly recommended.

A wonderful team they have there at Nelson Bay resume - especially Tanya and Jaime. Tanya had made my super outdated resume look wonderful again and Jaime gave me an invaluable session and coaching on going for interviews. I highly recommend not only their resume writing services but also the interview coaching - especially for those who have been out of the workforce for a long time, it’ll definitely help one to be more confident and prepared for their next interview.
