写好Cover letter需要做到如下几步:
1、逻辑要清晰
COVER LETTER最忌讳散乱,因此在动笔前,写下最主要的几点,用逻辑化的顺序连接起来。一般的格式是:为什么选择这份工作,这家企业,为什么你是合适人选,然后就是怎么联系。这三样东西必不可少。
2、短小精悍
COVER LETTER不宜太长,既然它是简历的一部分,那么就应该概括的介绍,而不是事无巨细。另外考虑HR每天大量的收到简历,也不宜增加HR工作,否则易产生厌烦感。
3、做足功课
招聘人员在看简历和COVER LETTER的时候,会试法感受你是只是要份工作,还是真正理解这家公司的目标和状况。他们希望招的是既有能力又忠诚的人。一份显示出仔细研究过公司网站,有关信息,能够把自己的特殊技能和公司业务联系起来的简历会与众不同。
4、个性突出
简历比较公式化,COVER LETTER就是许多招聘人员用来衡量应聘者个性的窗口。你可以让自己的用语个性化一些,但是注意不要太随便,或者过于亲昵,既有特色又不失专业面貌为佳。
5、联络信息
很多公司,尤其是那些招聘频繁的公司,COVER LETTER不一定会保存。有些应聘者把重要的联络信息都放在COVER LETTER里面,而简历则没有这些关键信息。等到简历被传到有关人士手中,可能已经没有了第一页的简历,那么别人也就无法联络到你了。
关于Cover letter的注意事项:
1、Cover letter 应当包含三个方面的内容:
Who are you and where are you?
Where did you hear about me?
What can you do for me? What can you provide relevant to the job?
2、范例
