Prepare & Edith by Farshid Karpasand

What is a Cover Letter and Why It’s Important
• A cover letter is a one-page document that you submit as part of your

application
• Its purpose is to introduce you and briefly summarize your
professional background.
• On average, your cover letter should be from 250 to 400 words long.
• A good cover letter can spark the HR manager’s interest and get them
to read your resume.
How to Write the Perfect Cover Letter
• Pick the Right Cover Letter Template

-A good cover letter is all about leaving the right first impression
• Start the Cover Letter with a Header

-As with a resume, it’s important to start your cover letter with a Contact Information section.
Full Name
Phone Number
Email
Date
Name of the company/ University you’re applying to
- In certain cases, you might also consider adding:
Social Media Profiles
Personal Website
- what you shouldn’t mention in your header:
Your Full Address
Unprofessional Email
• Greet the Hiring Manager / University Department

-The first thing to do here is to address the cover letter to the hiring manager or university manager
• Here are several other greetings you could use:
- Dear [Department] ........
- Dear .........
-Dear .......Team ........
• Write an Attention-Grabbing Introduction
- First impressions matter, especially when it comes to your job/ university search.
• Explain why you’re the perfect person for the job/academic position
-This is where you show off your professional skills and convince the HR/ Department
• Explain why you’re a good fit for the company/university department.
• Use the right formal closing.
Feel free to use one of the most popular conclusions to a cover letter:
-Best Regards,
-Kind Regards,
-Sincerely,
-Thank you,
