Not exact matches
Showing your skills rather
than telling them is another
quick tweak to help improve your
cover letter.
Nothing will get your
cover letter discarded
quicker than misspelling the name or address of a recipient or organization.
Whether it's writing a
cover letter to send with your resume, inquiring if an employer you'd love to work for is hiring, or sending a
quick email or LinkedIn message to a networking content, it's easier to start with an example or template
than it is to write a brand new
letter from scratch.
Even though it's
quick and easy to send an email, it doesn't mean that you should write anything less
than a detailed
cover letter focused on why you are a good match for the job you are applying for.

A killer
cover letter will get your resume in front of the people that hiring
quicker than just throwing a resume at them.
