Cover Letter

A great cover letter can help you stand out from the crowd and create a positive first impression. It is generally your first point of contact with a prospective employer, hiring manager or recruiter. In the increasingly competitive jobs market, cover letters for job applications can be the difference between making it onto a shortlist or not.

A well written, professional cover letter should not only provide a written introduction for your application, it should be engaging, convey your interest for the role you are applying for, and demonstrate your suitability for the advertised position. Individually tailored for each position, the covering letter should communicate your experience specific to the role, how your experience will add value to the organisation and how your personal attributes would be the ideal fit for the culture.

Most importantly, an effective cover letter should progress your application to the next step…an interview, where you can impress them in person!
