A cover letter introduces you and your resume to a prospective employer. In it, you state what type of position you're seeking, and explain how your particular mix of skills and experiences would match with the employer's needs. At the end of the letter, you request an interview. Cover letters are important whether you're sending a mass mailing or responding to an advertisement. They give employers a context for your resume, clarify why you're specifically interested in their organization, and allow them a glance of your writing ability and style. Because you may be evaluated on form as well as content, aim for a letter that is organized, grammatically correct, and error free. The tone of your letter should be polite yet assertive. Write letters in a standard business format. Get your reader's attention and identify why you are writing in the first paragraph. It is wise to keep your letter to one page. Use the same bond paper and laser-quality print as your resume. Personally sign each letter.
