Cover Letter Tips

Just like your resume, cover letters should be written with a clear focus and each word chosen carefully. Keep your reader in mind. In fact, you could go so far as to hang a picture of the recipient on your laptop and act as if you're writing directly to her.

Here’s what she’s looking for in your cover letter:

• Will you do the job long term?’

• Do you want the job?

• Do we like you?

• Will you fit in?
