What is Cover Letter

• A cover letter is a document sent with your
  resume to provide additional information on your
  skills and experience.
• Employers use cover letters as a way to screen
  applicants for available jobs and to determine
  which candidates they would like to interview. If
  an employer requires a cover letter, it should be
  listed in the job posting.

What Is Included in a Cover Letter

• A cover letter typically provides detailed
  information on why you are qualified for the job
  you are applying for. Effective cover letters
  explain the reasons for your interest in the
  specific organization and identify your most
  relevant skills or experiences.
• A cover letter supplements a resume and provides
  additional information on your qualifications for
  the job for which you are applying.

Why Cover Letter is Important

• A resume is of limited value to an employer if
  he or she doesn't know what kind of work you want
  to do. A cover letter tells the employer the type
  of position you're seeking -- and exactly how you
  are qualified for that position.
