THE COVER LETTER
The following points should be taken in to account when writing your cover letter:

Unless a handwritten response is specifically asked for then you should type your letter - If using email then put your cover letter as the body of your email. Add your CV as an attachment
- Keep it clear and concise
- Don’t repeat the contents of your CV
- Keep it to one page
- Include your contact details (name, address, email and phone number)
- Find out who will be receiving the letter and address it them personally
- State the role you are applying for
- Relate your skills required in the job and why you are a good fit – these are your personal selling points
