Shane Said:

What do I write in the cover letter for my resume?

We Answered:

The cover letter should be a brief introduction of who you are. Make it short and decisive. State your current status as a student (if you are one) and write what you are studying (if it is relevant to the job you are applying for - i.e retail management/marketing). Write a few "power word" attributes of yours and why you think you'll be an excellent candidate for the position. Good luck!

There are many, many books on the subject. No answer on Yahoo answers can begin to provide the wealth of info a book can, so I won't even try. I recommend "Cover Letters for Dummies," by Joyce Lain Kennedy. Good luck!

how do I write a resume cover letter to apply for a graphic design job if I have only college experience? Help

We Answered:

This is always difficult but don't dispair.

The best thing to do it look at the job offer and list the qualifications, skills and anything else the employer is asking for.

Once you have this it is time to write the cover letter. Try and match yourself as close as possible to each requirement. If the say they need computer skills but you have done no computer courses write that you have worked on various computer packages MS/WORD etc.. in prepairing for you projects at college.

Don't be afraid to say that you do not have specific experiance but always make up for it by saying you have the ability to learn quickly and you are confident that you will be sucessful in all aspects of the position.

In my experiance companies would rather pay less and get someone with potential they can train with the outcome of having an employee with the skills and paying them less than an experianced person from the start paying them more.

Remember the Resume only gets you to the interview stage. It is there that you need to be confident and truly beleive you are the right person for the job.

I always say that if you approch everything with an extremely positive mind and try and suppress the thought of I am not good enough, you will succeed.

Chin up and if you get a knock back and you are not offered the job than dont worry because the people interviewing you know what they are looking for. Always be yourself as the interviewee does not want to be in the position of employing someone they thought was something else. If you are not the right person for the job accept that it does not mean you are not good enough rather that you would not fit in that specific work environment.
