The importance of a covering letter is all too often overlooked. It not only gives an insight into you as a person, it highlights any research you have undertaken about your potential employer and, crucially, how you will benefit that employer.

Outstanding covering letter writing is fundamental to catching the eye of hiring managers. Your covering letter is an opportunity to highlight your strengths and to demonstrate how well you would fit in at your potential employers company or organisation. Your covering letter can provide information about the talents and experience you have that are directly relevant to your career choice. Its another chance to explain how a particular qualification or experience has helped you develop the skills you have, and to highlight your talents and expertise. Adducology offer a range of products that can also help from CV writing to interview training and for those applying to university they also offer UCAS personal statement reviews.
It is a fundamental to target your covering letter appropriately taking into account the reader and the organisation for which you are applying. Never send out identical covering letters which fail to mention specific details about the employer. It’s much better to show youve taken time to research the company and to demonstrate you know exactly what they do. Make it clear youve thought about which skills are relevant to them and how you can provide these skills. Its more worthwhile to spend time writing ten personalised covering letters than to send out 100 identical ones. The tone is also critical, when applying for most jobs you should use clear, business-like language. However, this is not always the case. If you’re applying for a creative role, such as a designer, you could show off your originality through your style of language and its tone. Use your judgment based on what you can find out about the company and their approach to hiring, and on your own language skills. If you dont think you can get it right, stick to the tried and trusted formal methods! It’s essential that you make a good impression at the start of your covering letter. You’ll do this if you include the appropriate details and grab the employer’s attention right from the outset.
