3-SENTENCE COVER LETTER! (The One Hiring Managers Actually Read!)

HOW TO WRITE A COVER LETTER! (BEST COVER LETTER TEMPLATE FOR CV & RESUME!) Get your CV written by me here: https://cvmadeeasy.co.uk/ #coverletter #coverlettertips #cvtemplate #resumetemplate THE PURPOSE OF A COVER LETTER 01:16 Hiring managers and employers usually receive hundreds of applications for each job – the majority of candidates do not submit a cover letter – this is a big mistake.
“The purpose of a cover letter is to make the hiring manager think, ‘This person understands exactly what I need, and I want to meet them.”
That is why your cover letter must grab the attention of the hiring manager – the best way to achieve that is to keep it to just 3-sentences. Hiring managers don’t have much time – keeping your cover letter concise and impactful will help you get invited to an interview.
Your cover letter can either be sent as a printed document along with your CV or resume, or as an email. In the next section of this lesson, I am actually going to give you 3 cover letters, not just one. All you have to do is choose the one you think is the strongest.
