Cover letters are still necessary, and in a competitive market they can
give you a serious edge if they are written and presented effectively.
Cover letters are a graceful l way to introduce yourself, to convey your
personality and to impress a hiring manager with your experience and your
writing skills, said Katy Piotrowski, an author of career books and a
career counselor based in Fort Collins, Colo. You can also tailor them to a
specific company in ways that you cannot with a résumé.

Writing a cover
letter<http://jobsearch.about.com/od/jobsearchglossary/g/coverletter.htm>
often seems like a particularly daunting task. However, if you take it one
step at a time, you'll soon be an expert at writing cover letters to send
with your resume <http://jobsearch.about.com/od/resumes/qt/profresume.htm>.
A cover letter typically accompanies each resume you send out. Your cover
letter may make the difference between obtaining a job interview and having
your resume ignored, so it makes good sense to devote the necessary time
and effort to writing effective cover letters.
A cover letter should complement, not duplicate, your resume. Its purpose
is to interpret the data-oriented, factual resume and add a personal touch.
A cover letter is often your earliest written contact with a potential
employer, creating a critical first impression.
*There are three general types of cover letters:*
· The *application letter* which responds to a known job opening
· The *prospecting letter* which inquires about possible positions
· The *networking letter* which requests information and assistance
in your job search
Your cover letter should be designed specifically for each purpose outlined
above as well as for each position you seek. Do not design a form letter
and send it to every potential employer (you know what you do with junk
mail!).
Effective cover letters explain the reasons for your interest in the
specific organization and identify your most relevant skills or experiences
(remember, relevance is determined by the employer's self-interest). They
should express a high level of interest and knowledge about the position.
