Creating a Cover Letter

Cover Letter Guidelines

When writing your cover letter, here are five tips to keep in mind.

1. Be concise
   One page is all you should need.
2. Proofread
   Ask a reliable source to review and edit your letter.
3. Write multiple drafts
   This will help you fine-tune your letter; edit and revise as you go.
4. Use bullet points
   Itemizing your skills or job experience makes things easier to read.
5. Keep it simple
   There’s no need to use complex design; use basic fonts and formatting.
