Why a Cover Letter is Important

Posted by Busselton Resume on 5 Jan 2025

Writing a cover letter for a resume is an important step in the job application process. While a resume gives an overview of your abilities and work experiences, a cover letter gives you the chance to introduce your self to the manager who is hiring you and provide the reason why you are most suitable for the job.

Here are some important points to keep in mind when writing a cover note to include on your resume:

  • Demonstrating your enthusiasm for the job Cover letters are an excellent way to inform the hiring manager how excited you are for the position and how eager you are to be a part of their organization. In expressing your enthusiasm for the organization, you’ll make a good impression and make your application stand out.
  • Highlighting specific skills and experiences: A cover letter is an opportunity to display particular abilities and experience that makes you suitable for the job. Through highlighting how your abilities meet the needs of the job, you’ll improve your chances of being invited to an interview.
  • Affirming any possible concerns: Cover letters allow you to address any potential concerns that the manager who is hiring you might have regarding your skills. For example, if you have a gap in your work history 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 up for it.
  • To help you stand out: A well-written cover note can make you stand out among other applicants. By making your cover letter specific to the particular job and company, you can demonstrate that you have done your research and that you know what the business is looking for.
  • Showing your writing abilities, attention to detail, and professionalism A cover letter should be a reflection of your writing ability and attention to detail and professionalism. A professionally written cover letter can convey the impression of a polished and professional applicant who takes the application process seriously.

But, writing an effective cover letter is laborious and difficult. It’s essential to customize your cover letter to your specific job and organization, and the chances are that you’ll make mistakes. It’s the reason employing a professional resume writing service such as Busselton Resume can be a great idea.

I would highly recommend Busselton Resume. Tanja, my writer, was very knowledgeable and understands resumes from a recruiters perspective. Tanja did a complimentary review for me initially and then gave me a great resume and cover letter to follow. Great service, thanks guys!

I was amazed how quickly and efficiently my request was making progress during COVID lockdown. First I made a contact in the chat where we had a short conversation. Then Tanja and Gemma from Busselton Resume contacted me over the phone where we discussed the particulars. I am good in my specialty, but writing resumes is not my strongest skill. As a result I got the resume and the cover letter reworked really well. I believe my chances of getting a good job got way better now than before.

I love the fact the resume represented who I am based on my skills and attributes. I definitely recommend Busselton Resume to anyone who hasn't used a resume writer before. They are also so affordable compared to so many on the market who charge an absolute fortune.

I ordered the Gold Package which was a Resume and Cover letter. I would honestly rate it an easy 10/10. Not only was the resume and cover letter perfect but the Customer Service is what really blew me away. Literally a few minutes after making the order I was contacted and a resume plan was formulated. Thank You Tanja :)
