Resume Cover Letter Writing

A Resume Cover Letter has only one purpose - to stimulate the recipient of your resume to review your resume.

Resume Cover Letter goes in the email message

In the age of e-mail your Cover Letter should go in the message of the e-mail and not as an attachment.

Hiring managers and recruiters receive too many resumes to open and read each and every cover letter that comes as an attachment to an email.

The chances are very good that a Cover Letter sent as an attachment will not be opened and read and in fact the email will simply be deleted.

The resume cover letter must be brief

Keep your resume cover letter brief and to the point.

Assume that the person receiving your resume is busy - very busy. They are reviewing other resumes - many.

Your cover letter is introducing you to the person who could be hiring you.
