Cover Letter: Your Resume's Most Important Friend

Posted by Goulburn Resume on 15 Apr 2025

Writing a cover letter for the resume is an essential element of the job application process. While a resume provides the details of your education, qualifications and experiences, a cover letter will allow you to introduce your self to the manager who is hiring you and present the reasons why you’re the ideal candidate for the position.

Here are some of the most important things to consider when writing a cover letters to your resume:

  • Exhibiting your enthusiasm about the job Cover letters are a great opportunity to show the hiring manager how excited you are about the role and your desire to work for their company. Through expressing your passion for the organization, you’ll build a positive impression and help your application stand out.
  • Highlighting specific skills and experiences Cover letters are an opportunity to show specific skills and experiences that help you be a perfect fit for the job. By highlighting how your qualifications meet the needs of the job, you will enhance your chances of securing an interview.
  • Affirming any possible concerns: A cover letter can be used to address any issues the hiring manager may have regarding your skills. For instance, if have a gap in your employment history or lack experience in a particular field it is possible to explain the reason why this doesn’t matter and what other skills help to make more up for it.
  • To help you stand out: A well-written cover note can make you stand out from other candidates. By creating a cover letter that is tailored to the particular job and business, you can show that you have conducted your own research and that you know what the company is looking for.
  • Showcasing your writing skills, attention to detail, and professionalism: A cover letter is a reflection of your writing skills and attention to detail and professionalism.

I moved to Australia 2.5 years ago. After feeling stagnated in my job, I started to look at my resume again and attempted to update it. After realising it was extremely outdated, I enlisted the help of Perth Resume. Tanja was great, very prompt at replying to any queries I had and returned an updated resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile within 3 business days. I must say the documents look great. Highly recommended.

Fantastic I highly recommend this company they compiled an amazing resume and cover letter in PDF format and word, don't worry if you find computers frustrating as I do they will book an interview with you over the phone. The consultant took about a hour (less if you have everything organised which I did not). Also they will sort out your LinkedIn profile if you have one. Again amazing. Thanks again for your help. Rob
