Updated 2026-08-01
Use a practical, role-focused structure
Structure the letter with a clear opening, 2–3 short paragraphs that highlight relevant skills and outcomes, and a concise closing. Avoid generic introductions or unnecessary length.
Focus on the tasks you actually do
Highlight the responsibilities and results that align directly with the job description. Honesty and clarity help both human reviewers and ATS systems understand your fit for the role.
