Why a Cover Letter Matters

Posted by Pro Resume Writers Gold Coast on 2 Dec 2025

A cover letter to accompany a resume is an important part of the application process. While a resume provides an overview of your abilities and work experiences, a cover letter can be a chance to introduce your self to the hiring manager and state why you’re an ideal fit for the job.

Here are some important points to keep in mind when writing a cover letters to include on your resume:

  • Demonstrating your enthusiasm for the job The cover letter is the perfect opportunity to demonstrate to the manager who will be hiring you how enthusiastic you are about your job and how much you want to work for their company. In expressing your enthusiasm for the business, you will create a positive impression and help your application stand out.
  • Highlighting your specific abilities and experience In a cover letter, you have an opportunity to showcase specific abilities and experiences that help you be a perfect fit to the position. By highlighting how your qualifications are in line with the requirements for the job, you will improve your chances of being invited to an interview.
  • Affirming any possible concerns: Cover letters allow you to address any doubts the hiring manager may have regarding your skills. For example, if have a gap in your employment history or lack of experience in a particular field it is possible to explain the reason why this doesn’t matter and how your other qualifications can make up for it.
  • Helping you stand out A well-written cover letter can make you stand out among other candidates. By adapting your cover letter to the specific job and company, you will be able to show that you’ve conducted your own research and that you understand what the company is looking for.
  • Showcasing your writing skills and attention to detail and professionalism The cover letter is a reflection of your writing ability as well as your attention to detail and professionalism. A professionally written cover letter will demonstrate that you are a polished and professional candidate who takes the interview process seriously.

I was amazed how quickly and efficiently my request was making progress during COVID lockdown. First I made a contact in the chat where we had a short conversation. Then Tanja and Gemma from Gold Coast Resume contacted me over the phone where we discussed the particulars. I am good in my specialty, but writing resumes is not my strongest skill. As a result I got the resume and the cover letter reworked really well. I believe my chances of getting a good job got way better now than before.
