What's in the letter

Short, specific and yours

  • An opening about this job

    It starts with the role and the employer from the posting, not with a sentence that could go to any company.

  • Two or three matching strengths

    The middle picks the qualifications from your resume and answers that match the posting's requirements most closely.

  • Gaps, handled honestly

    Where you don't meet a requirement, the letter points to transferable skills or your plan to learn, rather than claiming experience you haven't shown.

  • A clear close

    It ends with a confident call to action, in three or four paragraphs overall.

Built on your facts

Nothing made up

  • The letter may only use facts from your resume and your answers to the follow-up questions.

  • Your address, email and phone number come from your own material. If CareerWin can't find a detail there, the field stays empty rather than being guessed.

  • Gaps are addressed with what you can honestly offer, such as transferable skills or a plan to learn.

  • You read and edit the final text before it goes anywhere.
