Posted by Wangaratta Resume on 1 Nov 2025

A cover letter to accompany a resume is an important element of the job application process. While a resume provides a summary of your qualifications and work experience, a cover letter can be a chance to introduce your self to the manager who is hiring you and explain why you are most suitable to the job.

Here are some of the most important things to consider when writing a cover letter to include on your resume:

  • Highlighting particular skills and experiences The cover letter provides an opportunity to show particular skills and experiences that will make you a good fit for the job. In highlighting the ways your skills correspond to the requirements of the position, you’ll enhance your chances of securing an interview.
  • In response to any concerns that might arise: A cover letter allows you to address any issues that the manager who is hiring you might have regarding your skills. For example, if have gaps in your career or have a lack of expertise in a specific area, you can explain why this isn’t a problem and explain how your other credentials help to make more up for it.
  • Helping you stand out: A well-written cover letter will help you stand out from other applicants. By tailoring your cover letter to the specific job and business, you can show that you’ve done your research and you know what the business is looking for.
  • Highlighting your writing talents as well as your attention to detail and professionalism Cover letters are an indication of your writing abilities as well as your attention to detail and professionalism.
