Tips for the Cover Letter

A few things to consider when writing a cover letter:

• Do not include long paragraphs and complicated sentence structure. Your cover letter will likely only be briefly scanned for key words and job specific skills and experience which should not get buried.


• Keep your cover letter professional by using a plain font on white, crisp paper.


• Do not exceed one page.


• Re-read it several times to make sure that it includes all relevant information relating to the job advertisement, that it is free of spelling and grammatical errors, and that it includes your correct contact information.

Job Specific Cover Letter Samples:

• Social Service Worker I


• Medical Social Worker


• Outreach Coordinator
