Many candidates do not enter the cover letter. Because, instead, it must be provided.
The cover letter is a document that accompanies the curriculum vitae and is used to present your application to an employer. The cover letter is a way to personalize your application and stand out from other candidates.
Typically, your cover letter should be short (one or two pages at most) and should include information such as:
- why you are applying for that particular job
- your qualifications and experience most relevant to that job
- How did you hear about the job opportunity?
- your expectations in terms of pay and working hours.
The cover letter is a way of showing the employer that you are interested and motivated to work for them and that you have the right qualifications for that role. It can also be a way to distinguish yourself from other candidates and demonstrate your enthusiasm for the job opportunity.
