4. Dear Ms. ...
Start your letter with a grabber a statement that establishes a connection
with your reader, a probing question, you want to mention the name of the
job you are seeking and you should also mention any mutual contact you
have within the company or a quotable quote. Briefly say what job you are
applying for. If there is not a specific job, then simply state that you are
seeking employment.
5. Explain why you think you are qualified for the position. You should not
summarize your resume! You may incorporate a column or bullet point
format here. Give evidence of your experience, for example I have just
graduated from a Bachelor of HR Administration - Assistant Director -
Counseling Clients... Mention your most important qualifications. Remember,
the reader will consider this an example of your writing skills.
6. In the third paragraph, should primarily thank the employer for his or her time, and
explaining what you will do next (e.g., call the employer) explain why you would like to
work for this particular company. You can also send an e-mail or a fax to follow up on
the hard copy of your resume and cover letter, or you'll call on a certain date to set up
a meeting. Finally, thank the employer for his/her time.
Sincerely,
Christina Wright
