How to Make Your Cover Letter Fit for Any Job
By Jessica Holbrook Hernandez, Expert Resume Writer
Let's face it, a blanket cover letter just isn't going to cut it these days. So how can you make the best use of your time while maximizing your results? Here are a few simple steps to customizing your cover letters. (And if you don't think you SHOULD customize your cover letter for each application you submit, then we have bigger problems than I thought...)
A Memorable Opener
Here's a mistake I see more and more job seekers making: the opening line on their cover letter reads, "Please accept this in response to the (position) advertised on month day, year..." What's wrong with this kind of opening line? Everyone uses it. The point of your job search is to stand out from the crowd - not get lost in the midst of it. Instead, try using - something similar to your branding statement. You can easily tweak your branding statement to be a customized opening line.
