How to Write a Cover Letter

Your first paragraph should state the purpose of your cover letter while specifically mentioning the

position you’re applying for. Briefly summarize why your experience makes you a good fit. Try pulling

language from the job requirements so you can directly relate your experience to what they’re looking

for.

Your second paragraph should summarize why you’re uniquely qualified for the job, which is where you

should explain your experience. Explain how what you do makes you a great candidate for the position.

In the last paragraph, restate your interest, specifically ask for an interview to learn and include your

phone number. Finally, thank the hiring manager for his or her consideration.

Sample Cover Letter

Dear (Hiring Manager’s Name),

I would like to apply for the Pet Assistant position advertised by you. I saw the position listed on the

website. I have experience pet sitting and think I would be a good addition to your company.

Having worked with animals for over a year, I have learned a lot about the skills needed to care for many

types of animals. I am responsible for walking, bathing, and feeding several of my neighbors pets. Doing

this, I have learned how to work with a variety of animals and their different personalities. Working

with different people has taught me good people skills, too.

I would like to meet with you to discuss my experience and share with you how much I would enjoy

working at (company name). You may contact me at (333) 333-3333 or by email at

Sincerely,

(your name)
