A cover letter is a single page short document that you send with your resume or CV. Now it is usually the front page, and therefore it is the first thing a hiring manager will see and read about your application. Whenever you write a cover letter, remember these four really important tips.
Tip number one
Make sure there are no spelling, grammar or punctuation mistakes in your cover letter, because if there are any mistakes, your application will get rejected because it demonstrates a lack of attention to detail skills.
Tip number two
Be polite, professional, and courteous in your cover letter. Always remember that good manners help to create a positive first impression.
Tip number three
Make sure you include your direct contact details on your cover letter, including your mobile number and your email address. Now, make sure your answer phone message is professional sounding. Now, if the hiring manager calls you up to invite you to an interview and your answer, phone message is unprofessional, they could hang up.
Tip number four
Make sure you include several key strengths in your cover letter that prove to the hiring manager. You will be able to add value to their company in the role.
