Example of cover letter

There is a two types of cover letters as two types of approaching company. Sometime it is highly important to personalize as much as possible your cover letter and Cv to the exact job you are interested in and feel you have great potential with it. The other choice is to write standard cover letter and Cv in order to approach as many jobs offers as possible and let the numbers play its game.

Example:

Dear Elaine, (state name of the person you are writing to. It is always nice to show that you done some research, know what you are doing and interested in company and job)

I am writing this letter to apply for Customer Services Administrative assistant role (it is very important to show that you know what you want. Even if there is no exact position opening in the company and you just want to send your CV for future considerations name specific departments you are interested in). I would like to continue my customer support career in order to create value for the company. (Why you want this job or work in this company? You may want to show your consistency in work experience and key skills)

I have unique combination of administrative and customer support work experience, and have strong knowledge of problem solving, excellent communication manner, and dealing with regular administrative tasks (event/project organization, paper work, computer skills, and etc.) (Here you want to talk about your key strength. Use strong adjectives while talking about your qualifications. Talk more about skills which exactly correspond to the job description. Use bond front to underline your experience)

Please see my CV. I would be happy if you contact me for interview. (Use smooth and nice closing of the cover letter. In case you are sending cold mail you may want to state exact day when you would like to follow up – that would give you a chance to talk with them one more time).

Best regards,

Anastasia
