The importance of a Cover Letter

Posted by Griffith Resume on 4 Oct 2025

The creation of a cover note for your resume is a crucial part of the application process. While a resume gives the details of your education, qualifications and experience, a cover letter is an opportunity to introduce your self to the manager who is hiring you and provide the reason why you are an ideal fit for the job.

Here are some essential points to remember when writing a cover letter to your resume:

  • Expressing your enthusiasm for the job The cover letter is an excellent way to inform the manager who will be hiring you how enthusiastic you are about the job and your desire to work for their business. By expressing your enthusiasm for the company, you’ll create a positive impression and make your application stand out.
  • Highlighting specific skills and experiences In a cover letter, you have an opportunity to highlight specific skills and experience that makes you suitable for the job. By highlighting how your qualifications are in line with the requirements for the position, you’ll improve your chances of being invited to an interview.
  • Addressing any potential concerns: A cover letter can be used to address any concerns that the manager who is hiring you might have regarding your skills. For example, if you have gaps in your career or lack experience in a specific field and you want to justify why this shouldn’t be a problem and how your other qualifications make the up-side.
  • Making you stand out A well-written and professional cover letter can help you stand out from other candidates. By adapting your cover letter to the specific position and business, you can show that you have done your research and that you are aware of what the employer is looking for.
  • Showcasing your writing skills, attention to detail, and professionalism A cover letter should be an expression of your writing ability, attention to detail, and professionalism. A well-written cover letter will convey an impression that you’re a professional and polished candidate who takes the application process seriously.

Jin Simon Shin
This is well worth the investment. So if you are tossing up whether you should do it or not just pull the trigger. I dealt with Tanja and she was incredibly professional. She communicated thoroughly. Provided a timely turnaround. The final outcome was brilliant. Admittedly I would have never had the capacity to put that much time and effort in. It's crazy how someone who is writing about you can capture you better than you can yourself. Massive thanks to Tanja. Highly recommended Griffith Resume.
