For candidates with work experience highlighting results.
Open the Cover Letter Builder and select this template to generate an editable letter.
When to use this letter
You have work experience and want to show how your results fit the role you are applying for.
How the letter is structured
An opening that states the role and your years of relevant experience, a body paragraph with one or two achievements, and a closing that expresses interest in discussing how you can contribute.
Tips to make it your own
- Pick achievements that match the job description rather than listing everything.
- Explain briefly why you want to move, in positive terms.
- Address the letter to a named person when you can find one.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Criticising a current or former employer.
- Making claims about numbers you cannot support.
- Writing more than one page.
The Cover Letter Builder fills in a draft from the details you type. Treat the draft as a starting point: read it, replace generic phrases with specifics and make sure every claim is true.
