Cover Letter: Your Resume's Best Friend

Posted by Rockhampton Resume on 16 Sep 2025

Writing a cover letter for your resume is a crucial part of the application process. While a resume offers the details of your education, qualifications and knowledge, a cover letter is an opportunity to introduce your self to the manager who is hiring you and state why you’re the ideal candidate for the job.

Here are some important points to be aware of when writing a cover letters for your resume.

  • Expressing your enthusiasm for the job Your cover letter can be a great opportunity to show the hiring manager how excited you are about the job and how eager you are to be a part of their organization. Through expressing your passion for the company, you’ll build a positive impression and make your application stand out.
  • Highlighting your specific abilities and experience: A cover letter is an opportunity to show particular skills and experience that makes you suitable for the job. In highlighting the ways your skills correspond to the requirements of the job, you will improve your chances of getting an interview.
  • Be prepared to address any issues that may arise. A cover letter can be used to address any potential concerns the hiring manager may have regarding your skills. For example, if you have a gap in your career or a lack of experience in a specific area, you can explain why this isn’t an issue and explain how your other credentials can make more up for it.
  • Helping you stand out A well-written cover note can help you stand out from other candidates. By creating a cover letter that is tailored to the specific job and business, you can show that you’ve conducted your own research and that you know what the company is looking for.
  • Your writing skills and attention to detail and professionalism The cover letter is an indication of your writing skills and attention to detail and professionalism. A professionally written cover letter can convey your professionalism and show that you’re a polished and professional applicant who takes the interview process seriously.

Fantastic I highly recommend this company they compiled an amazing resume and cover letter in PDF format and word, don't worry if you find computers frustrating as I do they will book an interview with you over the phone. The consultant took about a hour (less if you have everything organised which I did not). Also they will sort out your LinkedIn profile if you have one. Again amazing. Thanks again for your help. Rob
