Should I make multiple cover letters and Resumes? I'm looking for a summer internship, and willing to get an internship from an Investment bank, a CPA firm, or any consulting firm. I'm making a resume and cover letter now, and realized that one resume won't be able to be compatible with each different industry. In this case, should I make multiple resumes in each different industry? Lastly, for a cover letter, should I make a different cover letter each time I submit it to different employers?

Do I need to send multiple cover letters/resumes? If applying to several jobs within one organization, do I need to send an individual cover letter and resume for each position? Or should I list each position on one straight-forward cover letter?

The positions I'm applying for vary slightly, but require the same credentials.

Resumes and cover letters for jobs in UK- what to mention about work status & do they use different formats? Hi, I am a US citizen married to a British citizen. We are planning to move to the UK this fall as he will begin a PhD program in Scotland. I need to get a job and am starting to apply from the US.

Another question about resumes and cover letters? Or more than one question, I should say.... I've noticed that there are frequently requests for resumes to be sent via e-mail. How does one do a cover letter in this case? Make it the body of the e-mail? Are the resume and references provided in the body of the e-mail or in an attachment? Should I send the references as a separate attachment or include it in the same one as the resume so that it just adds an extra page?
Is there a free website that offers sample resumes and cover letters? I don't want to pay for a resume-- just to get some ideas or suggestions on how to write one. I don't have a specific job title so I might go with a little generic in more cover letter.

And having kids, I would like to work when they are in school.

Seeking help with Cover Letters and Resumes? Career Objective There are debates about this. Sometimes what you put in your Career Objective you can just throw in your cover letter and possibly make it smoother. And if you're applying for a sales, a sales isn't really a "career" its a "job". Any other insight on this? Skills Software skills and technical skills like different programs or problem solving, communication, multitask, researching stuff like that. I've seen software skills in resumes quite often but for those technical skills, I see it on cover letter and resume. In cover letter, people relate it to their job/job description. In resume, people just throw it in because its on the job description and when the employer reads the resume, all the "requirements" are there because the applicant copy/pasted it there... Qualifications Should I put these in resume or cover letter? Or a bit in cover letter but specific ones in resume. Point form or paragraph? I've seen both types for cover letters, any insights which would be preferred? Point form seems easier to read but its just paragraph but broken up with space in between... Address, Email and Phone Number Typical cover letters you place these at the beginning of the letter like a letter. But if you were to apply by email, the body of your email would be your cover letter. Would you still place the address, email and phone number at the top or place it at the end where you say "Regards, So and So" like typical emails. (The resume is attached). Greeting in Cover Letter What kind of greeting would you use? Hello would be unprofessional. Dear Hiring Manager? Dear _____ (name if you know?) "To Whom It May Concern" or what? I personally prefer the actual name if I know. Or the position of the person I am emailing to. To Whom It May Concern just doesn't suit me. Any insights on this matter? Attached Resume .doc, .docx or .pdf? I personally prefer pdf because you wouldn't have the cannot open error or less likely. Or should I just put it after the cover letter? Thank you for reading

What type, weight, and color is best to use for Resumes and Cover Letters? I have heard white is the best color, but is that necessarily so? Also, not sure what weight is best, I have seen 20 lb to 32 lb paper. Are watermarks appropriate or distracting? And any recommendations on brand to use? I am a current job-seeker and have been to many websites explaining this, but they all seem to contradict each other! Please help! I forgot to put the word "paper" into the question, but hopefully y'all knew what I was talking about. The jobs I am applying for are professional office-type positions. I need to print my resume and cover letter on high-quality paper to send in by postal mail. Another issue - is it best to send in traditional long envelopes or the large folder-type with the clasp on it?
Summary vs Objective on Resumes and Cover Letters? I'm curious to hear from anybody in HR or who use to work in HR. What grabs your attention more.

Cover Letters? Do those companies that write cover letters for people (for a fee) work? Can a prospective employer tell if one was written by the applicant or one of those places? i ask because while I have a knack for composing one heck of a resume, cover letters - not so much. I have all the qualifications but I don't even get a call back. I've had two friends - both managers - read my cover letter and they say that it is fine, but I have gotten no bites and I'm thinking maybe it's the letter. Some people are just not good at composing cover letters. I have primarily used employment agencies for that very reason. Thanks in advance!

Calling potential employers after submitting resumes/cover letters? Based on my past experiences, I haven't really haven't needed to call employers for interviews. Either they call or email, and usually I hear one way or the other. I've had a few that don't respond, some of which are "no calls, emails or faxes" type, but is it worth it to follow-up? I realize hiring people are busy, but is it any indication of someone's chances when they have to call? Do hiring managers appreciate go-getters at all or do they prefer the control in who to call or not?
Another question for hiring supervisors - Cover letters and resumes? Hiring supervisors, there are people out there who want to break into certain fields but either have a poor work history that they have improved, or just don't have a lot of experience (how do you get experience if you don't get a chance). So, for those of us who would like to return to a particular field or who would like to break into a new field, how do we get your attention so that we can be considered for a position. Especially when you have a lot of more experienced applicants?
are cover letters necessary for resumes? I am applying to grad school. I had to hand in transcripts, a goal statement, a resume, an application (with fee), and my PRAXIS scores. I submitted everything electronically. I have never had to write a cover letter. I applied to this school for my undergrad and got in without a cover letter, but of course I am obsessing a bit, because that is the one thing I did not do. Do you think this is really bad? I thought that since I had a goal statement and everything was together electronically that I might be okay. Thanks.
Need a quick answer about resumes/cover letters!? I am applying for a job that has you attach your resume (apply online), but it says nothing about the cover letter--is this implied? This will be my first "real" job where I actually had to submit a resume, so I'm not sure what to do here. It's also one of those things where you upload your resume, but can apply for like 5 different jobs...so I can't really mention just one in the cover letter, you know? I'd appreciate some help! Thanks! It's a job at the hospital--I'm actually applying for a few jobs there (they've got a lot of openings).
Would you be interested in a "How to" Guide Book on everything you need to know about resumes, cover letters..? I have an all inclusive Resume Guide Book I wrote and I want to offer it on my website for sale as an e-book and thinking about getting it published as a hard copy. It includes all types of resumes and the differences between them, action verbs to help write these resumes, cover letter/reference page/acceptance letters, etc/..... info, Interview do's and dont's, how to deal with certain questions in the interview, etc...... It is a very easy to follow guide that will help anyone. One will learn skills they can use for a lifetime and in my opinion, everyone needs to know this info. Now, I am not trying to rip anyone off either, because I know times are tough and there are already enough expensive things in the world. I was thinking I would sell this guide book for $9.99. So, my question is, would this be something you would be interested in buying? If so, do you have any suggestions as to what you may like to see in the book as well as what I already spoke of? (I will also offer help in any writing needed to anyone that is trying to write it themselves for a SMALL fee) Thanks to all suggestions.

Would it be better to send resumes/cover letters through job sites or to actually contact the company? Before answering read my questions down below: Would i have a better chance of getting a call back if i contacted the company and asked for a specific email and contact name to address my letter to? Or should i just copy and paste my cover letter into the designated space on the job site and attach the resume. I found a job through indeed and through career builder i just supply my email and name and the two articles of paper asked of me. It says it will automatically send it to the employer..can i trust this? Anyhow, i don't know the name of the employer so i was thinking about contacting the company/agency. What are your thoughts? @BioLiz: Thanks, I did call the company and they did give me the name of the person in charge of human resources so i guess that's an OK to directly email them? Or should i still go through the job site? I contacted human resources with some questions and also to give them a heads up before just sending my cover letter and resume. The secretary said it would be ok to contact them so i went for it without immediately diving in. Was that a smart move?

Do recruiters forward cover letters along with resumes to their clients? Since the economy is dead in Michigan, I have been searching for jobs out of state. Most of the jobs I apply for are through recruiters and I note that I am willing to relocate in the cover letter but I never get calls on jobs that I are idenical to what I used to do. I am just wondering if the people who get my resume think I am not willing to relocate at my own expense because they don't get the cover letters. About 6 years ago I used a recruiter to find an employee and I can't remember if I also saw cover letters too.
Is it really ok to send resumes and cover letters via online? I was always told to use professional resume paper for use in printing off my cover letters and resumes, but now when I'm looking for jobs these days, it just doesn't seem realistic to mail everything anymore. Everything is digital now, and that's fine, but how does that reflect on the professionalism of application materials? To me, it just doesn't seem hardly ok to send a resume or cover letter online via sites like careerbuilder or monster when the formatting of these materials is completely disorganized when you cut and paste the whole thing.
How big of a factor do cover letters play anymore? It's been 6 years since I've checked out the open job market and have had 3 jobs over the past 11 years. It seems as the years go by, the resume submitting process has become more and more casual. When I first started applying for jobs, it would be a typed cover letter and resume that was sent via mail. Now a day, people submit resumes online, though various job sites, etc. My question is, how big of a factor does a cover letter play in this day and age? It seems like everyone wants things to be straight and to the point and don't want to be bogged down with extra information/data to go though. However, in the past I know a cover letter could be used as an extra tool to sell yourself. Is the cover letter still an important tool to use? As you build up more and more experience over the years, is it necessary to have?

Increasing My Chances of Getting Hired - Cover Letters and Resumes? Hi, I was recently on a job hunt that I found to be quite unsuccessful. I only need a job to help pay for school fees throughout the year (nothing big or business). However, since it is the end of summer, it looks like no places are hiring. I was wondering how cover letters and resumes might help me, and if so, how do they work? Do I attach them all together with my application and hand them in, or do I mail them? Also, are there certain jobs that don't accept them? And would they even be necessary/appropriate for the jobs I am applying for (coffee shop worker, retailer)? Of course, any other additional information pertaining to increasing my chances of getting hired will be greatly appreciated. Also, I am currently sixteen years old and I've had one other job as past experience.

How important are cover letters for job searchers? I want an honest answer. Maybe from someone who gets resumes from potential candidates in HR. Are cover letters really that important to getting a call back from a potential employer? I've sent at least 30 resumes and cover letters off in the past month with ZERO success. My problem is, is that they take WAY too long to write, and I just end up sounding like a kiss-a$$ by saying how great the company is, and how I would love to work there,...yada yada yada.... Monster has this thing where you can apply for jobs with one click, and I wanna do it, but I don't wanna keep changing the stupid cover letter around. I'm thinking about just not including one at all (which is an option). So my question is, honestly, do people in HR actually read cover letters? Or do they just go right to the resume and qualifications of the candidate? Please help, I'm getting fed up job searching. I mean , if I'm applying for a job at your company, wouldn't that alone just make it seem like I wanna work there? Or not?

My sister plagairized my job applications, cover letters, and resumes...should I rip them up? I came home from work and saw some papers on the table that looked like letters to employers, so I glanced at them and noticed that it was one of my cover letters I wrote when I was looking for a job a few months ago, except my sister signed her name at the end. She did the same thing with my resume. She takes my clothes, lies and just takes me for granted all the time and it makes me soo angry. If she asked, then it would be a different story..but she just took the easy way out and printed off my work. I spent hours perfecting all the documents..and then she just uses it. This is her first time applying for jobs, and I think she needs to do the work herself. I searched on the computer for jobs ads and sent her 20 links to check out..she never thanked me or anything either. I really just want to rip the papers up..

Advice for resumes and cover letters for job fairs? At the moment, I'm in the process of both trying to apply for a job, and also trying my odds at a job fair coming up next week. This would be the first time I've ever put together a resume for a job (and the first time since high school projects that I even touched upon the subject of a resume), so I think I could really use a few pointers. Considering the resume will be submitted to (hopefully) many potential employers, should I really go for a specific Objective on the form? And besides skills, work experience, and education, what sorts of areas look appealing to employers? (If it helps, I'm using Microsoft Word's resume templates for this.) Would things like hobbies and extracurricular activities really make a difference to employers? And I suppose finally, should I even worry about a cover letter, considering the variety of employers that will be represented at this job fair? Any and all help will be appreciated!
