COVER LETTER WRITING GUIDE

How to Write a Cover Letter

The cover letter is an individually addressed letter that explains your interest in an employer and why you are a strong fit for a position. A cover letter accompanies a resume and, therefore, should highlight your strengths (as appropriate for the position), but not repeat your resume. This letter should be interesting. Give specific examples to back up the strengths you wish to highlight and be clear about the aspects of the position and/or organization that interest you.
