• A professional job application writer will be
  able to assist the job applicant in crafting the
  perfect cover letter to accompany their job
  application.
• While your resume is supposed to lay out the
  facts about you your cover letter is meant to
  convey more personality.

3

• Your cover letter is your first introduction to
  the person who may potentially hire you and the
  main goal of the cover letter is to make you as
  memorable as possible in a positive way.
• As a result of its importance in the process
  every cover letter you provide should be unique.
  No templates, no form letter fill in the box
  style available online.
• It should be formatted to be responsive to the
  position and the industry you are applying for.

4

• For a cover letter to be successful it should
  contain the following
• A memorable and personal introduction.
• This is where you introduce yourself to the
  potential employer and tell them a little about
  yourself, it includes the position you are
  applying for and briefly, why you want that
  position.

5

• Specific and organised examples of relevant work
  skills and experience.
• In the body of your cover letter, you are
  providing information for the employer on how
  your qualifications, skills, knowledge, and
  experience meets with their requirements in their
  job description.

6

• A concise conclusive summary that pulls it all
  together.
• You use this last paragraph to confirm your
  interest in the role and add a statement about
  what makes you a perfect fit for the position and
  state clearly your willingness and enthusiasm to
  meet with the employer to further discuss your
  application.

7

• So how best do we provide the information
  required? It is certainly not through listing all
  your skills and experience as it appears already
  on your resume.
• In job application writing a writer can help you
  to read through the job description and
  brainstorm examples from your employment
  experience that match with each of the selection
  criteria or keywords.

8

• Choose the selection criteria mentioned in the
  job description as important or necessary and
  ensure you cover each of these in your cover
  letter.

9

• Now write an anecdote or story describing real
  situations from your career that demonstrate and
  highlight your skills and experience that match
  each of the important requirements or key words.
• Use their keywords in your letter this
  demonstrates attention to detail and that you
  have read and understood their needs and
  furthermore that you have the skills and
  experience they require.

10

• Be sure that your stories focus on those skills
  and requirements and demonstrate your proficiency
  and your cover letter will be memorable and
  interesting to the reader as it is more
  individual and unique.

11

• Although there is no format for a cover letter it
  should be visually appealing and organised and
  present the information in a systematic way.
• It should leave the reader feeling that you are
  the right person for their position. Your cover
  letter should leave them no doubt that an
  interview is imperative and then the interview
  becomes your showcase to prove you are the best
  candidate for their position.
