Your cover letter should be personalized to the employer and position, and should have specific information about you and your skills.  Generic cover letters won't get your resume attention.  Employers want to see results of your skills:  fundamental knowledge won't get you a job...but if you were able to decrease time to fill by 3 days at a past job (example) then you might be noticed.  btw please use spell checker...i throw resumes for professional jobs in the bin if they have poor spelling and grammar!

I did job placement counselling for years and here is my take on cover letters.  Think of it as a marketing tool.  The first paragraph should say why you are writing.  If it is just that you are impressed with the company and want to work there, just say that.  The second paragraph should answer the question, "why hire me".  This should be the 3 or 4 things that you have to offer this company. You need to know your stregths before you begin any job search. Try to link your strengths with their needs and show them how you would be a good fit for their company. (tip:  these should also be in the executive summary at the top of your resume and should be the things you make sure you get across in an interview)  The last paragraph should say what comes  next.  Are you going to contact them by phone? Then say, I will contact you next week... If not say, I look forward to talking with you in person about my qualifications. I can be reached at....   Sometimes cover letters and resumes get separated and you want to have your contact info. in the cover letter too.  There is also a good book that is titled something like, "Drop Dead Cover Letters."

Rather than a letter you might want to make a phone call and set up an appointment with the Human Resources Department. Find out what  openings are available. If they like you they'll help you fit in somewhere if they can. At least you'll know. While you are waiting check into jobs with Temp agencies. Around here they jobs pay very well and are often a foot in the door to something permanent. Good luck.

Actually, your cover letter is the e-mail body itself, the resume is just the attachment. State exactly what you would in a cover letter in your e-mail.

First is spelling and grammar. If somebody sees your spelling and grammar stinks, they won't finish your cover letter.\n\nFirst paragraph: Tell them why you're interested.\n\n2nd: Provide skills, training, education, credentials, etc. that fit the job.\n\n3rd: Restate paragraph and tell them how they can get a hold of you.

Choose the field/job you want, and tell the others in a very cordial letter.  Thank the "also-rans" for considering you for employment, and to please remove your name from their list of prospective employees at this time.  Here's a sample letter, if you want:\n\nDear Sir:\n\nThank you for considering me for a position in your company.  I appreciate the time you took to speak with me.  However, I have decided to accept a position with another employer who has offered a salary closer to my desires.  I would certainly like to ask you to please remove my name from your list of prospective new hires at this time.  However, I hope that, in the future, I could be a candidate for a future position with your company, should the occasion arise.\n\nSincerely,\n\n_____________________

rkrill,\n\nOne should not APPLY (note correct spelling) for jobs that one is NOT qualified to perform.\n\nAnyone STUPID enough to freely GIVE you a spell-checked, grammatically correct portion of a cover letter for a job you aren't qualified to have doesn't know enough to be embarrassed...therefore, your reply would be worthless.\n\nProblem is rkrill...how would you know?

Well, if it's written poorly, has poor grammar or spelling, you'll look like a goober.  If it's a poor cover letter the prospective employer may not read another thing beyond the letter (like you resume).  Cover letters are meant to entice employers to want to read your résumé. \n\nHere is a website with advice about writing a cover letter:\nhttp://www.aresumes.com/coverlet.htm\n\nWHY YOU SHOULD WRITE A COVER LETTER\nThe key objectives of a cover letter are to: -\n• Inform the employer of your interest in the job\n• Persuade the employer of your suitability for the job\n• Make you look professional\n• Build good will\n• Obtain an interview\n• Write the structure of your interview\n• Demonstrate your writing and research skills\n• Offer a little window into your personality\n\nhttp://www.swin.edu.au/corporate/careers/Cover_Letter_Handout.pdf
