1. The Introduction: The introductory paragraph states the position you are applying
for, how you heard about it, and why you are interested in the position. If
someone referred you for the position, mention their name. The goal is to hook
the employer and motivate them to want to review your resumé and invite you for
an interview!
2. The Body: Paragraphs 2–3 give actual examples of your success in areas that
support what the employer is looking for in the position. This is where you link
your skills and abilities with the job description.
3. The Closing: The final paragraph shows enthusiasm for working for the company.
Request an interview to further discuss the position and state that you will call
within a week to follow up. Thank the employer for their time and consideration.
The body of the cover letter is the most important part. To help you craft a strong
body, it is important to match your qualifications with those the employer is
looking for. To help you do this, you will need to study the job description in great
detail. Extract the main functions, tasks, and desired qualifications from the job
description and give examples from your past work experience to illustrate how
you are a good fit.
Be sure to read the criteria by which your paper will be evaluated before you write and again after you write.
