The importance of a Cover Letter

Posted by Wellington Resume on 8 Apr 2025

The writing of a cover letter for a resume is an important aspect of the job application process. While a resume provides a summary of your qualifications and experiences, a cover letter can be a chance to introduce your self to the hiring manager and provide the reason why you are the best fit for the job.

Here are some key points to consider when writing a cover letter to include on your resume:

  • Exhibiting your enthusiasm about the position Your cover letter can be an excellent opportunity to tell the manager who will be hiring you how enthusiastic you are about the role and the desire to be a part of their organization. In expressing your enthusiasm for the organization, you’ll make a good impression and help your application stand out.
  • Highlighting the specific skills and experiences you have In a cover letter, you have an opportunity to show specific abilities and experiences that help you be a perfect fit for the job. In highlighting the ways your skills meet the needs of the position, you’ll increase your chances of getting an interview.
  • Addressing any potential concerns: The cover letter is a way for you to address any concerns that the manager who is hiring you might have regarding your skills. For example, if you have gaps in your employment history or a lack of experience in a certain area and you want to justify why this isn’t a problem and how your other qualifications can make more up for it.
  • Helping you stand out A well-written cover letter will help you stand out other applicants. By tailoring your cover letter to the job you are applying for and the company, you will be able to show that you’ve conducted your own research and that you know what the business is looking for.
  • Showing your writing abilities as well as your attention to detail and professionalism: A cover letter is an example of your writing skills as well as your attention to detail and professionalism. A professionally written cover letter can convey an impression that you’re a polished and professional candidate who takes the application process seriously.

First time using a resume writer, and so happy with the finished resume. I was also so impressed with the prompt responses throughout the whole process from Tanya and in general the quick turnaround time to produce it. I love the fact the resume represented who I am based on my skills and attributes. I definitely recommend Wellington Resume to anyone who hasn't used a resume writer before. They are also so affordable compared to so many on the market who charge an absolute fortune.

I ordered the Gold Package which was a Resume and Cover letter. I would honestly rate it an easy 10/10. Not only was the resume and cover letter perfect but the Customer Service is what really blew me away. Literally a few minutes after making the order I was contacted and a resume plan was formulated. Thank You Tanja :)

A wonderful team they have there at Wellington resume - especially Tanya and Jaime. Tanya had made my super outdated resume look wonderful again and Jaime gave me an invaluable session and coaching on going for interviews. I highly recommend not only their resume writing services but also the interview coaching - especially for those who have been out of the workforce for a long time, it’ll definitely help one to be more confident and prepared for their next interview.
