A cover letter drafted uniquely for the position .
being applied for allows the applicant to control the first impression they make to the employer as well as describe briefly why they would be a good fit for the position. The letter should be concise, friendly and professional. It should only briefly explain the skills the applicant has, and what they bring to that specific job.
