Resume Cover Letter Tips & Samples


If a professional resume is the "cake", resume cover letters are the "icing" on the cake. This is because
knowing how to write a resume is only one part of the equation. Combined with resume distribution efforts and networking, solid resume cover letter writing can have a positive impact on your job search campaign. Resume cover letters serve as an additional opportunity to sell your worth.

Most job seekers decide to send their resume “naked” – without the benefit of a strong resume cover letter. This is a big mistake. Resume cover letter writing complements the resume since the content is written directly to the open position. The cover letter helps the decision maker to draws conclusions. A resume cover letter can make a difference between whether you are invited to an interview. 

Including the resume cover letter, a job search requires other types of correspondence including a thank you and resignation letter. Just like cover letter writing, all job search letters share common goals – they should be personal and leave a lasting impression on the reader. Without strong writing skills, cover letter writing, thank-you letters and resignation letters is going to be a challenge.

CareerStrides resume service can help with all your letter-writing needs. We can custom develop the letters you need to be a success. To learn more about how we can help you, email us at evaluation@careerstrides.com or complete our contact us page. For resume cover letter articles visit our resume tips page.

Types of Resume Letters
 

Resume Cover Letters

  • Referral cover letter writing - used when you are referred to a company by an individual that knows you and the hiring executive well.
  • Invited cover letter writing - written in response to a classified ad in a newspaper or online, trade magazine or any other form of advertised opening.
  • Unsolicited cover letter writing - written to inquire about possible job openings that might be in the hidden job market or not advertised yet. 

Thank You Letters

  • After the interview - the objective is to thank the interviewer for their time and should focus on one of the following messages:
  • To mention an important message you neglected to bring up during the interview.
  • Reiterate your interest in the position and recount how you can benefit the company.
  • Offer new insight on a job interview question that was discussed during the interview.
  • Thanking a friend or contact for help—to thank an acquaintance, friend, or networking contact who has helped you with your job search. This letter should focus on one of the following messages:

A detailed thank you for providing specific information and taking
the time to help you.

To inform them on how one of their leads generated a positive outcome.

  • Informational interview - the purpose of this letter is to thank an individual for taking the time to meet with you and educate you on the trends and hiring practices of a specific field.

Resignation Letters

  • A well-written resignation letter adds to your portfolio of professionalism.
  • It leaves the door open for further communication down the road. You may need a contact person within your former company for future career planning and networking.
  • Finding the appropriate words to let the employer know how they had a positive effect on your professional growth is something that should not be taken lightly.
  • A resignation letter should include the effective date of your resignation, reason for the resignation, and information on how the company has positively impacted your professional career.
  • The tone should be kept professional. Keep in mind that a resignation letter will become part of your employment file.
