Cover Letter Template
Cover letters are very simple to write.
All you are doing with the cover letter is saying:
I want this job. I have experience so check out my resume. Call me!
They should contain three simple paragraphs:
1) I am responding to your opening.
2) Experience, desire, skills.
3) Call me
Example Cover Letter (IT):
March 1, 2004
