A well developed cover letter can help differentiate your resume from the countless others that are submitted to an employer. A cover letter should summarise your skills and experience.

Guidelines for creating a cover letter:

  • If possible address the contact person relevant to this position eg, Recruitment Co-ordinator.

  • Include the title of the job, reference number (if available) and where you saw the advertisement. Eg Central Coast Express or Seek.com

  • Keep to the point and make it relevant to the position applied for.

  • Describe what you can bring to the role.

  • Avoid repetition.

  • Avoid any negative information.

  • Keep the length of your cover letter between 3-4 paragraphs in length.

  • Ensure you spell check and proof read before submission.
