Finding it hard writing a cover letter that truly represents you? It’s always said that you never get a second chance to make a first impression and a carefully written cover letter can be the turning point when it comes to snaring that all important internship or job. It will be where the prospective employer will hope to see some of the specific qualities that you hold and how you can help move his company forward. Above all it’s where you can really put across your personality and prove that you can fit seamlessly into any operation.
Fear not as Inspiring Interns, in conjunction with The Guardian, are holding a live web-chat in which our illustrious CEO Ben Rosen will be fielding any questions that you may have. It is being held on the Guardian website from 1 – 4 pm on Thursday 22 April. So if you need any help with format, length, register or what to leave in or out, then head over now as you can post questions in advance that will be answered on the day.
Very professionally done but a sample Cover Letter would have been helpful. TIP: use a fictitious position/job seeker for the sample letter – something like looking for a new alley in which to prowl, etc.
The advice you post here makes sense. I guess the flipside might be when companies list positions anonymously.
I’ve put together a sample cover letter for internship, hope it can do you the favor.
