Hi everyone! Creator here.<p>I run a career platform, Resume Worded and some of the most common questions I get from my readers and users are about cover letters. Whenever anyone asks about them, I usually just send them a couple of good examples of cover letters they can use as inspiration.<p>I thought I'd curate a bunch of great samples so other people can use them as inspiration too! They're sourced from some excellent career guides by places like Harvard and Stanford (links to the original guides are included too!)<p>Hope you find them useful :) Any feedback or feature requests, let me know!<p>Thanks!
Rohan<p>P.S. This is a side project to my main product, Resume Worded, which gives you feedback on your resume and LinkedIn profile powered by AI, as well as sample resumes. It'd be awesome if you could check it out too! thank you
I have seen hundreds and hundreds of resumes, but have never -- not once -- been shown a cover letter by anybody whose name wasn't on it.<p>They are always thrown away.<p>Probably some places expect to get it, but they don't pass it along. So, it really doesn't matter much what it says unless you are writing it to a specific person. In that case any other letter would be useless.
Actually having to write up a cover letter today for the first time in ages to apply for a position that requires one. At the very least, these provide a good frame of reference and structural inspiration.<p>Thanks for submitting it!
