A cover letter for a resume lets you introduce yourself to the hiring manager, provide context for your achievements and qualifications, and explain your motivation for joining the company. Another major purpose is to help ace your next interview (https://swifta.com/blog/how-to-ace-an-interview/).

But you can’t just write a cover letter. It has to be perfect. So…How do you write the perfect cover letter? The cover letter that will give all the information a recruiter will need to be convinced you deserve an interview. Here are key points to take into consideration when writing a cover letter.

1. Start with a professional header
How you start matters goes a long way in the result you’d get. the basics first. The letter header of every professional cover letter for a job application should include the following:
-Your name
-Your phone number
-Your email address and The date
-The name of the hiring manager and their professional title
-The name and address of the company to which you’re applying

Optionally, you can add: Your professional title, Your home address, Links to your professional websites, Your social media accounts (applicable only for LinkedIn and Twitter), Your city of residence (it’s not mandatory but adds a professional touch include it if your cover letter is highly official)
Just remember to keep it professional:



2. Open cover letter with appropriate Greeting
Direct your greeting to the hiring manager who will read it. The greeting of your cover letter (i.e., the salutation) might be the very first thing the hiring manager sees. That makes it one of the most important parts of a cover letter. There’s one great, foolproof strategy to make your greeting catch her attention: Use first of last name. “Dear Ashley” “Dear Mr. Able”
