How to Write a Standout Cover Letter

• Effective cover letters differentiate applicants by showcasing qualities beyond resume details, such as communication skills and work ethic.

• Avoid simply restating your resume; instead, highlight unique attributes and accomplishments that demonstrate your suitability for the specific job.

• Use a straightforward opening, focusing on your interest in the position, and avoid unnecessary creative flourishes or extensive research into the hiring manager's name.

• Demonstrate your skills and abilities through concrete examples and quantifiable achievements, rather than making generic claims of excellence.

• Personalize each cover letter to align with the specific job requirements and company culture, aiming for a warm and conversational tone while maintaining professionalism; keep it concise, around one page in length.

What do you think about cover letters?

Helpful? Unnecessary? Hated? Have they helped you get a job?

Yes because most applications need a cover letter. Because it’s telling a brief description of what you do and why you wanna apply and that you know a little bit of what they do, and before any applications to a company you want to do your research on a company before you go in the interview

"Cover Letter" Should you or shouldn’t you?

The debate over whether or not to write a cover letter rages on, but there's a clear answer for Andrew Fennell, a former corporate recruiter and the founder of the résumé-builder website StandOut CV.

"Over the years I've found that people who can't be bothered to do that don't usually have great work ethic," he said. "It doesn't have to be an A4 essay, just something brief in their email to show that they've read the job advert and explain why they think they would be a good fit for the job."

On the flip side, applicants who submit a well-tailored cover letter "will always stand out and ensure that I read their résumé," he said.

Mr. Fennel is just one expert with his view. I do agree with him and believe many others do as well. With the competition you are up against in today's job market you need to do your best to stand out. Writing a first class Cover Letter can help with that. #AWU #disability #jobs #coverletter

Did you know!

89% of recruiters expect job candidates to submit a CoverLetter, according to Zety's 2025 Future of Work Report, which surveyed 753 recruiters or HR professionals involved in hiring.

The benefit of submitting one, whether your prospective employer asks for it or not, is that "the cover letter is an opportunity to shape the narrative of your candidacy and ensure the hiring manager understands how your experiences align with their needs.

Remember, however, not to repeat what is in your Resume. Explain why you are a good fit. #AWU #disability #jobs #coverletter
