Create a clear, concise cover letter

Stressed Out Nurses Weekly, January 14, 2008

Once you have completed your research on the organization in which you are interested, you can sit down and write a custom cover letter. Here are some tips on creating a solid one:

  • Always address the letter to the appropriate individual. If you do not know his or her name and title, call the organization and ask.
  • Always limit the cover letter to three or four paragraphs.
  • Always type your cover letter.
  • Always use the same paper that you used for your resume.
  • Always proofread your cover letter very closely. (Then have someone else read it.)
  • Always include the exact title of the position you are seeking.
  • Always be clear and concise.
