How to Write an Effective Cover Letter?

The cover letter is a necessary addendum to the resume in order
for a job to be attained. The letter is used in order to
demonstrate to a potential employer why the individual is applying
for a job, why the individual would be qualified for the job and an
asset to the employer as well as to ask for an interview.
The first part of the cover letter is the salutation which
addresses the letter to an individual person, specifically the
person who hires the individual. The letter should not be addressed
“to whom it may concern” or to a department head or the personnel
office but to the immediate supervisor who will oversee the
applicant.
The second part of the cover letter is the opening in which the
applicant needs to capture the attention of the employer. Instead
of talking about themselves, it is advantageous for the applicant
to discuss the company such as the company’s recent projects and
recent positive activities that the company has conducted as well
as favorable reviews and comments regarding the business. Such
information can typically be found in newspapers or on websites. It
is important that the applicant have a good grasp of the company in
order to appear knowledgeable to the employer as well as
interested.
The next part of the letter is the body which is where the
applicant speaks about their qualifications and interests. This
part of the cover letter acts as an introduction to the resume
which serves as a continuation to the body of the letter.
The last part of the cover letter is called the closing in which
the interview is requested by the applicant. Requesting the
interview is a necessary aspect of the letter because the employer
is less likely to offer an interview to those who do not directly
ask for the opportunity. The letter should be finished with a
specific date and time in which the applicant will confirm the
appointment to arrive for their interview. The letter should be
signed with a customary closing such as “Sincerely” with
approximately three lines left between this closing word and the
applicant’s signature and phone number.
