Quick Tips for Cover Letter

 

  • Since there is no Exact format to write a cover letter, Hence you can follow some tips which may increase the impact of your cover letter.

    • Start with Dear Hiring Manager/Team/ Name of Hiring Manager
      • Avoid writing Hi Team
    • Ensure the grammar and spellings are correct
    • Cover letter can be more than 1 page, only if it makes sense to connect else keep it short and crisp 
    • Instead of saying what you want, emphasis more on what you can offer
      • You can go with 80-20 rule if not 100-0, where 20 & 0 is your need
    • Don’t rehash your resume as you are already sending it
    • if the Job is in another location, provide info on why you are moving to another city. Otherwise the employer may think that they might have to bear relocation costs.
      • (eg, As I wanted to move to XYZ city I was looking for )
    • Employment barrier's should not be mentioned in Cover letter till the time an employer is interested in you
    • Not Mandatory but good to include Cover letter when applying through 3rd party agencies as well. Agencies can use it to speak about you using your cover letter
    • Try to send it via email to Hiring manager it will ensure that your details have reached them and not left somewhere in the system
