Below are sample before and after cover letters for high school
students. Which high school cover letter is the strongest
and uses cover letter design to grab attention in seconds?
The
before or after cover letter sample?
As you can see the after high school cover letter uses underlining
and bolded headings to focus on key skills while working during
high school and also gained from high school education. To identify the key skills
Terry needed to market,
she analyzed a fairly detailed job ad and underlined all skills in
the ads she possessed to create a far stronger high school cover
letter.
Gather 5-10 job ads for the range of job positions you are
interested in while in high school or after high school and use them to create your cover letter.
Underline all of the skills in the high school job ads you possess
and then make a list of all of the skills you have. Then group
them by related categories and use the skills and category
headings to create an high school cover letter that showcases your
skills and experience.
If you have already created a powerful high school resume, then
you should have already used $, # and % to quantify your
achievements - and continue to sell these quantified achievements
in your high school cover letters.
If you review the content of the after high school cover letter,
you will see how it uses #'s to expand and elevate Terry's
image. The more you quantify and describe your
experience using $, # and % in your cover letters for high school
jobs the more likely you will be to land more interviews and
higher salary offers. For more ideas on how to create a
