Your contact details
Name, phone, email and city at the top, styled like your CV. A recruiter who wants to call you should not have to open a second file to find the number.
Your CV lists what you did. A cover letter says why it matters to this employer. Build one in three steps and download a PDF that matches your CV.
Start writing straight away. Your letter saves itself as you go.
Three sections and no blank page. You start from a full draft and replace what does not fit you.
Name, job title, email, phone, city. It is the same header your CV uses, so the two documents arrive looking like one application.
Organisation, contact person, address. A letter addressed to someone specific is the quickest way to show it was not mass-sent.
The draft already has the greeting and the sign-off in place. Replace the parts in brackets with your own, pick a template, download the PDF.
Six parts. Leave one out and the letter reads as unfinished. Add more and it stops being read.
Name, phone, email and city at the top, styled like your CV. A recruiter who wants to call you should not have to open a second file to find the number.
The company name, and the hiring manager if you can find one. "Dear Hiring Manager" is perfectly fine. "To Whom It May Concern" reads as no effort at all.
The role, where you saw it, and what made you apply. Two sentences. Skip the paragraph about how excited you are to see the opening.
Not a summary of your CV. One thing you did, what changed because of it, and by how much. A number turns a claim into something checkable.
Something true about them that you could not have written about anyone else. This is the paragraph that separates a real letter from a filled-in template.
Thank them, say you would welcome a conversation, sign off. One line each. Then stop writing.
Every design here shares its header with the CV template of the same name, so your application arrives as one piece. Pick one to start writing.
If you could send it to any employer without changing a word, it tells the reader nothing. One paragraph written for them specifically is enough to fix it.
Your CV is already attached. A letter that walks through the same jobs in prose wastes the one chance you have to say something the CV cannot.
The clearest tell of a mass application. If you cannot find the hiring manager, at least name the organisation you are writing to.
Three or four short paragraphs on a single page. Anything longer gets skimmed, and skimming finds the weakest sentence first.
Writing and previewing is free, and you can start without an account. You register when you download the PDF, which uses the same download credits as CVs.
No. Start writing and a temporary account is created for you in the background. The letter saves as you type, and it stays yours when you register properly.
One page. Three or four short paragraphs, roughly 250 to 350 words. If it runs past a single page you are almost certainly repeating your CV.
Leave that field empty and the letter opens with "Dear Hiring Manager", which is completely normal. Naming the company itself still matters.
Each template shares its header with the CV template of the same name. Same colours, same font, same arrangement of your contact details. Pick the pair and the two documents read as one application.
Yes. Both are part of the text you edit rather than something the template prints, so you can write "Dear Ms Ionescu" or end with "Kind regards" instead.
