A cover letter to accompany your resume is a crucial element of the job application process. While a resume provides the details of your education, qualifications and work experiences, a cover letter is an opportunity to introduce your self to the hiring manager and present the reasons why you’re an ideal fit to the job.

  • Highlighting particular skills and experiences Cover letters are an opportunity to showcase specific skills and experiences that make you well-suited to the position. By highlighting how your qualifications correspond to the requirements of the position, you can improve your chances of getting an interview.
  • Affirming any possible concerns: The cover letter is a way for you to address any doubts that the manager who is hiring you might have regarding your skills. For example, if have gaps in your work history or lack experience in a certain area and you want to justify why this shouldn’t be a problem and how your other qualifications can make more up for it.
  • Making you stand out A well-written and professional cover letter can help you stand out from other applicants. By making your cover letter specific to the job you are applying for and the business, you can show that you have conducted your own research and that you understand what the company is looking for.
