Many professionals and job seekers ask whether they need a cover letter with their resume. While some job advertisements do not state a requirement for a cover letter, if written precisely and concisely, it places you above some of the competition.
I like to think of it as a license and registration situation. When an officer asks for your license, they also ask for your registration. People expect and know the officer would like to see both, your license and registration. Likewise, a potential employer might want to see both, your resume and cover letter.
This article published on Forbes by The Muse provides tips you can apply when writing a cover letter.
A carefully crafted cover letter might serve as a connection that goes beyond that of a resume. Conversely, a poorly crafted cover letter will show a lack of creativity, personalization, and writing skills; thus, encouraging the employer to move on to the next applicant.
