A cover letter is a one -page document that you submit as part of your job application. It grabs the hiring manger's attention and can help you get to the next step of the hiring process.
Why create a Cover Letter?
A cover letter is to introduce you and briefly summarize your professional background. On average, your cover letter should be from 250 to 400 words long. It's typically submitted along with your resume in a job application. This letter should highlight your skills, experience and achievements concerning the position you seek. Unlike your resume, cover letters allow you to go into more detail about your professional career and explain why you're a good fit for the role and company.
