I'm so stuck writting a cover letter for my resume . Can you please help me ? Can you come up with a catchy paragraph or so for me. It's just a classic resmue that I will probally submit to a couple of different places .
You want to grab them, not catch them, and it’s easy. Here’s what you do:
Three brief paragraphs.
Paragraph one is “why” you’re submitting the resume.
Paragraph two is “why” you’d be a good fit for the job. It’s the marketing piece, the eye-catcher. It’s best if it can be something entirely different from your resume, but if that’s not possible, paraphrase a key point from your resume. Ex: With over five years as a top produce in telecommunications, my background lends itself to your position.
Paragraph three is the “call to action”. I prefer to be in the driver’s seat on that one by saying something like “I’ll call you on Thursday to set up a meeting” and then, of course, doing exactly that.
Sign your name and be sure to include your contact info on the cover letter. There have been many a time that the cover letter has been separated from the resume so the applicant couldn’t be contacted.
Cover letters are great marketing tools. Make sure it reflects the best of what you have to offer the company.
I wish you the best.
Let me know what happens,
Rita
