    TIPS for Cover Letters:

    • Never use a generic cover letter with only "To Whom It May Concern." With tons of work on your desk, would you be interested in such a mass mailing? You would be much more likely to read a letter that was directed to you personally, and so would human resources professionals.

    • Every resume sent by mail or fax needs a personalized cover letter even if the advertisement didn't request a cover letter.

    • Resumes sent by e-mail don't need a long cover letter. Use only a quick paragraph with three to five sentences telling your reader where you heard about the position and why your qualifications are a perfect fit for the position's requirements.
