Professional Formatting for a Winning Cover Letter

Posted by Kalgoorlie Resume on 6 Dec 2024

When you are the process of applying for a job a well-written resume and cover letter is essential. However, simply having good content doesn’t suffice. The design for your resume is as important as the content. A cover letter that is poorly formatted can leave a bad impression on the hiring manager, while a well-formatted one will make your company stand out from the competition. In this post, we’ll look at the important aspects of formatting your cover letter and discuss why it may be beneficial to let professionals such as Kalgoorlie Resume handle the formatting for you.

First, let’s talk about the do’s of cover letter format.

  1. Use a professional font. Times New Roman, Arial and Calibri are all excellent choices. Avoid using fancy fonts or difficult to read fonts.
  2. Do use a consistent layout. Make use of the same font, size, and layout in the letter of cover.
  3. Do include proper spacing. Make use of single lines or 1.15 line spacing and ensure that you leave plenty of white space to make your letter easy to read.
  4. Do include your contact information in the upper right-hand corner of the email. Include your address, name along with your telephone number and email address.
  5. Make sure to personalize your letter. Use the hiring manager’s name If possible, and then tailor your letter to match the position and company you’re applying to.

Let’s get to the essentials of cover letter design.

  1. Don’t use a template. Every cover letter needs to be unique and customized to the particular job and organization you’re applying to.
  2. Don’t exceed one page. Make sure the letter is concise and to the main point.
  3. Do not use fancy formatting. Use a simple, professional layout.
  4. Make sure to proofread your letter. Double-check spelling and grammar mistakes before you send the letter.
