Job Cover Letter Tips
to Get You Started
Here are some cover letter tips
to get you started:
-
Don't make your job cover letter
too long or too short, between 15 and 20 lines is a reasonable
length. If you have an extensive work history or are near
or over 50 years old, your cover letter can and probably
should be longer.
-
Do some research about the company or
group of companies to whom you are writing, so that you
can incorporate that knowledge into the job cover letter.
It will show that you are familiar and concerned with
the company's course of events.
-
If you are responding to an advertisement,
the job cover letter must address the needs and requirements
stated in the ad and how you are qualified to fulfill
them. Mention where you heard about the position opening.
-
You should mention any geographic preference
you may have, so the employer outside your preferred area
will not contact you.
-
Make certain that someone other than
yourself proofs your cover letter for spelling and grammar.
-
Write a polite formal ending without
being obsequious.
