Do I really have to include a cover letter with every resume? Print E-mail
The answer is unequivocally, YES, YES, and YES! The cover letter is often your first opportunity to represent yourself to a potential employer in reference to their specific needs – it allows you to bridge the gap so the employer does not have to. It is vitally important that your first written impression is a positive and lasting one. To achieve this goal, a cover letter merits some dedicated time and energy. Attaching a cover letter shows you are taking the time and care employers expect.
