Creating a Strong Cover Letter
Not only is your resume important to potential employers but a strong cover letter is also important. A cover letter is a way to sell yourself by mentioning specific aspects of your resume that demonstrate your ability to fill their open position. They are also necessary to explain anything in your resume that may need clarification or explanation.
To write a strong cover letter, keep these things in mind. Use a standard business letter format, using the name of the person reviewing your resume. In your letter, mention something about the company that will show your interest and that you have done your research on their company. Also explain why you are interested in the position. And remember your cover letter should not restate your resume, but draw interest to your resume. Finally, close your letter formally using a closing such as Sincerely or Cordially.
