Cover letter for job apps

nel

How many people use cover letters when applying for jobs? Ive been thinking of using one as many job recruiters ive came across do not understand some aspects of my CV as many (obviously) are not very tecnically aware.

Does anyone have any tips for one or a good template that any of you's would recommend from personal experiance? as im unsure what to put in a cover letter!

thanks for any input.

Definitely make a good cover letter. Keep it down to a few paragraphs and highlight some of your accomplishments that are applicable to the job your are applying for. Try not to be too redundant about your resume and never refer to your resume as having more details. They know it does. They will investigate your resume more thoroughly if your cover letter intrigues them, instead of tossing the resume onto the pile after a keyword search.
