Many job seekers choose to ignore cover letters while trying to persuade themselves and those around that this kind of document isn't important. They say you can easily get an interview invitation without sending a cover letter. It is hard to argue against this type of statements because you actually can get to the interview stage without a cover letter. However, very few job seekers think about how many people were hired just because they had chosen to prepare a good cover letter and send it along their resume or CV. It is true that cover letter writing takes a lot of time and people feel reluctant to write one. They seek, therefore, every excuse and opportunity not to do it. However, your job application can become so much more effective with a powerful cover letter. More than that, sometimes employers require this letter to be submitted along with a resume (CV). In this case, cover letter writing seems like a must-do.
Obviously, a resume is one of the most important job search tools you can ever have. This is a job seeker’s number one marketing document. When a hiring manager scans through a resume, he or she can tell you pretty much everything about its author. With time, however, resumes have become very similar – people know what to include in the document and what to leave out. Recruiters and HRs are tired after scanning through almost identical papers in attempts to find the candidate who can make a difference in the company. That’s when a cover letter steps in. No matter how effective your resume or LinkedIn profile is, it will never tell your real story to employers. A cover letter used to be a document that introduces a job seeker to a potential employer while explaining one’s suitability for the particular job. But today it is much more than simply that. While it does its main function – introducing a job seeker to hiring managers – it is also a great tool to say things you couldn’t say in your resume. The main question applicants are required to answer in this letter is why your background and qualifications are relevant to the applying position? No resume or CV allows answering this “Why?” question. The truth of the matter is that this is the question employers are interested in the most. That is how you can make a difference – by effectively addressing this “why?” in your cover letter. Drafting a concise and at the same time detailed cover letter is no easy thing. Job seekers always want to talk about their qualifications for ages. The format of this letter though limits the aspirations of candidates to 1 or 2 pages maximum. The deadliest mistake people make when developing a cover letter is they rehash their resume or CV. The purpose of a cover letter is to explain why you want this particular job, describe your qualifications and establish a connection between what you can do for the company and what the company is looking for.

Thank you for the wonderful resume and layout. I am pleased with the work. My job search will kick into high gear in December so I will probably be using cover letter service then. Please add the gaduation date from Excel Technical college as 1998. Thank you so much.
Well written and it doesn't concentrate on the foodservice manager, a field I do not want to work in.
I wanted to tell you that my resume now looks very, very impressive. It’s perfection itself!
I wanted to let you know that I got the resume the very day you sent it out. My interview was scheduled for Tuesday and that same night, by 10 pm, I got an email from the principal informing me that the position was mine. The result was superquick!!! The job’s at the school I really wanted to be a part of. Thanks a million!!!
I, once again, want to thank you for the outstanding service and the timely help you provided.
Thanks to your resume, I got calls from companies of a much higher caliber. It definitely beats the one I made for myself. Thanks!
“You really excel at what you do. My resume looks impressive. Thanks!”
Both the cover letter and the resume are excellent! They definitely won’t be the reason I fail to find the right job. You rock!
