In this video, Richard McMunn shows you how to write a cover letter that includes cover letter examples. Regardless of the job you are applying for, this tutorial will teach you all you need to know, including:
- How to write a cover letter;
- How long should a cover letter be;
- Cover letter examples;
- Covering letter format;
- What to include in a cover letter.
WHAT IS A COVER LETTER?
“A cover letter is designed to accompany a job application and it must sell your key skills, qualities, and experience to demonstrate you are the perfect candidate for the job.”
3 TOP TIPS FOR CREATING THE PERFECT COVER LETTER
TIP 1 - Keep it short, concise and positive
Make your cover letter relatively short, concise and positive in nature.
It does not need to be lengthy, simply because the hiring manager does not have time to read through reams of text and pages. The best cover letters are short and powerful - no longer than one side of A4.
TIP 2 - Load your cover letter with powerful keywords and phrases
Think about it, the Hiring Manager who reads your cover letter will have read many of these before. Therefore, we need to make sure your cover letter stands out from the crowd!
To achieve this, make it unique by inserting a number of positive keywords and phrases that will resonate positively with the person reading it.
Words such as professional, self-motivated, determined, confident and team worker will all help to demonstrate important qualities that are attractive to every employer.
TIP 3 - Don’t make any spelling, grammar or punctuation mistakes!
You’d be surprised at how many cover letters contain grammar and spelling errors. If you make any mistakes, your application will most probably end up in the bin.
It is important to make sure your cover letter has zero mistakes, as this shows you have great attention to detail.
