Cover LetterA cover letter is an accompanying letter that introduces you and your resume to a potential employer. You should send a cover letter with every resume you submit. A cover letter must not be longer than one page in length and contain 2 to 3 concise paragraphs. Use meaningful information - you do not want to waste the reader's time by writing irrelevant filler sentences. Cover letters should also not contain sentences that are too short in length - too short may mean that you did not put forth much effort. A cover letter should not be confused with a biography, which is a longer and more in-depth summary of your entire background. |
