Strong cover letter structure
A effective cover letter has four parts:
- Opening: role + one sentence on why you fit
- Proof: 2–3 achievements mapped to job requirements
- Motivation: genuine reason for company or mission
- Close: clear call to action and availability
What to avoid
Generic openers ('I am writing to apply...'), repeating your entire resume, or letters longer than one page unless the industry expects more.
