How to Write a Successful Cover Letter, Not One That Sinks You 1st Edition – (PDF/EPUB Version)

This Element is an excerpt from The Truth About the New Rules of Business Writing (ISBN: 9780137153152) by Natalie Canavor and Claire Meirowitz. Available in print and digital formats.   How to write cover letters that raise you above your competitors–way above them!   When employers ask for cover letters (even with online applications) along with your credentials, they mean it–they want a letter, not a spontaneous-looking e-mail or text message. They will most definitely judge you on it. This is perfectly fair. Employers want to see how you handle yourself in writing: the better you can, the more of an asset you’ll be.
