Question 2 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science - PE201

When you write a cover letter, which of the following should you do?

Answer
A
Repeat as many points from your résumé as you can, pointing out how extensive your experience is.
B
Show that you have researched the company and are interested in contributing your skills to their business.
C
Explain exactly what you did in other jobs.
D
List your educational degrees.

Explanation

A cover letter should connect your skills and experience to the employer’s needs and show why you want to work for that company. Researching the company helps you make that connection specific and demonstrate genuine interest. Repeating the résumé, detailing every past job duty, or simply listing degrees is not the main purpose of a cover letter.
