Cover Letter Writing Tips

Jul. 1, 2009


When writing your resume cover letter keep in mind that the reviewer is only interested in one thing: the facts. Do not think of your cover letter as an autobiography. It should be brief and to the point. The purpose of the cover letter (and resume) should be to demonstrate that you meet or exceed the requirements listed in the job description. It should convey that you’re interested in the position and that you're available to accept the position, if offered.
