Cover Letter Tips

An effective cover letter creates interest in you while introducing you to the employer. Create a compelling reason for the reader to seek you out now and put your name at the top of the list.

It is said that employers hire on the basis of 20 percent skills and 80 percent personality. Your cover letter should reflect your personality, while your resume reflects your accomplishments and skills. Make your cover letter exciting, energetic, and enthusiastic. Explain why you are interested in the organization and why you think you are qualified for a position there.

Cover letters accompany a resume sent via email or post mail. They are especially necessary with those sent via post.
