Sending a resume without a cover letter is like flying an airplane with no
pilot. It is going to crash and burn. A cover letter is your snappy
introduction. It lets the employer know right away why he/she should hire you.
Never consider sending a resume naked, it needs its cover letter! I have always
encouraged people to write creatively, an average employer who sits and reads
resumes all day long has a rather short attention span. Be sure to write
something that will catch their eye. There are some basics to writing a good
professional cover letter. I will outline them below:
Here is an example cover letter - but at the bottom of this page you can find
popular books on cover letters. Having a book on hand to refer to is a nice tool
to have. I own three cover letter and resume books myself. I've even thought
about writing resumes for others. But I really feel like you can save yourself
some major bucks by doing it yourself. And with books to refer to - it makes it
so much easier.
Be sure to have someone objective take a look - some times a fresh set of
eyes can fine tune a cover letter or resume for you.
Sample:
