为什么cover letter很重要？因为雇主希望看到你对该职位真正的兴趣和重视

如果你发100份简历，甚至不记得投的职位是干什么的，雇主不需要这样的求职者。所以对于你很想要得到的职位，一定要认真地写一份cover letter以及针对职位描述来修改简历，让你的经验和技能尽可能贴近职位要求，这样得到面试的机会将大得多

标题: 写coverletter时需要注意避免哪些错误
既然cover letter很重要，一定要检查仔细，避免错误，一些看似细节的小错误，就可能令你失去一个面试机会

What to avoid when writing your cover letter

• Poor layout
• Messy appearance
• Incorrect spelling
• Unclear , rambling sentences
• Incorrect punctuation
• Exaggeration of the applicant’s abilities
• Superior, discourteous or pushy tone
• More than one page in length
• Not enough details
• Photocopy rather than a signed original letter in case you are posting your application

Cover letters win interviews, not jobs!!!
Your cover letter enables you to present yourself (your interest, your abilities, and your suitability) in a logical and organised way.
Use your cover letter to answer important questions such as:
• Can you do the job?
• Do you have the abilities, skills, knowledge, experience and qualifications?
• Will you do the job well?
• Are you motivated, reliable and enthusiastic?
• Will you fit into the organisation?
• Do you match the company's image, values and goals?
• Will you get along well with clients and co-workers?
Many employers are very busy, so the cover letter needs to be concise
• Adapt every cover letter so it’s relevant to the employer and a particular job.
• Focus on what the employer wants to know, NOT WHAT YOU WANT FROM THEM or why you want the job. Try to convince them that you can do the job, that you’ll do a great job and that you’ll fit in and be an asset to their organisation.
• Keep your letter to no more than one page.
• Demonstrate you understand the job requirements, you have matching skills and experience and you are genuinely interested and enthusiastic about this specific opportunity.

What information will an employer gain from your cover letter?

• How well you communicate, including structure, grammar, spelling and punctuation
• Your experience, skills and qualifications
• Your level of professionalism
• Clues to your employability skills and attributes
• Your attention to detail.

COVER LETTERS DO’S AND DONT’S

DO’S
■ Make sure the presentation looks interesting – Well balanced.
■ Make it one page only.
■ Have your name, address, telephone and email contact as a header.
■ Have the date you are actually sending the letter, not the date on which you wrote the letter.
■ Send the letter to people not companies. (Research the receiver’s name and job title).
■ Use the Salutation: Dear
■ Use short sentences and simple language.
■ Check for grammar and spelling errors.
■ Keep it brief.
■ Make sure it is easy to read and stands out.
■ Make it 3 or 4 paragraphs.
■ Think of different ways to open your letter to stand out from everyone else an option use a punch line – strong statement.
■ Use the same paper and font as the resume.

作者: 136mydream 时间: 18-3-2009 06:31
DONT’S

■ Exaggerate your experience.
■ Overuse words.
■ Have words and phrases you would not normally use.
■ Make it a second resume.

在中介横行的澳洲，一些文字的装饰确实是一个很好的敲门砖。面试技巧很重要。尤其是对刚刚从国内来的同学们，要改变观念。酒香也要怕巷子太深。一定要把一些文字码好。

Dear Mr Cook,

Having so ...

请教斑竹，现在一般都是网上申请或发邮件的吧，所以签名的机会应该不会太多。那么如果是发邮件的话，cover letter到底是直接写在邮件内容上还是和Resume一样作为附件?我担心作为附件的话中介可能不会打开仔细看，谢谢指教

作者: smallmoon 时间: 25-4-2009 08:14
THANKS FOR SHARING, 但我看到有些商务函电的书。　最后簦名都放在右边，有哪位DX能答疑吗？我通常写邮件都是放在左下角，是否是商务英文所以写在右下角呢？

菜鸟问题：

1）， CV就是cover letter吧？
2），如果不知道对方的姓名／地址，那是不是就把那一段省略了？

作者: fatfish_cc 时间: 4-3-2010 19:47
还有，如果对方的联系人是中介，那么以下信息就要写中介的名字，对吧？
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Recipient’s name
Recipient’s job title
Company’s name
Company’s street address
Suburb – State – Post Code
