The importance of a Cover Letter

Posted by Bunbury Resume on 1 Jul 2025

A cover letter to accompany the resume is an essential step in the job application process. While a resume is an overview of your skills and work experiences, a cover letter can be a chance to introduce yourself to the manager who is hiring you and state why you’re most suitable for the job.

Here are some key points to be aware of when writing a cover letters to your resume:

  • Showing your enthusiasm for the job The cover letter is the perfect opportunity to demonstrate to the hiring manager how excited you are about the role and the desire to work for their company. By expressing your enthusiasm for the organization, you’ll create a positive impression and make your application stand out.
  • Highlighting the specific skills and experiences you have: A cover letter is an opportunity to highlight particular abilities and experiences that make you well-suited to the position. By highlighting how your qualifications match the requirements of the position, you’ll improve your chances of getting an interview.
  • Affirming any possible concerns: The cover letter is a way for you to address any potential concerns that the manager who is hiring you might have about your qualifications. For example, if you have a gap in your professional history or lack experience in a specific field and you want to justify why this isn’t an issue and how your other qualifications help to make an uproar.
  • Helping you stand out A well-written cover letter will make you stand out among other applicants. By creating a cover letter that is tailored to the specific position and company, you can demonstrate that you have done your research and you know what the company is looking for.
  • Highlighting your writing talents as well as your attention to detail and professionalism A cover letter should be an example of your writing ability, attention to detail, and professionalism. A written cover letter that is well-written will show the impression of a professional and polished candidate who takes the job selection process seriously.

I was amazed how quickly and efficiently my request was making progress during COVID lockdown. First I made a contact in the chat where we had a short conversation. Then Tanja and Gemma from Bunbury Resume contacted me over the phone where we discussed the particulars. I am good in my specialty, but writing resumes is not my strongest skill. As a result I got the resume and the cover letter reworked really well. I believe my chances of getting a good job got way better now than before.
