In Your Cover Letter, Connect the Dots

|

Connect the dots for your reader in your cover letter. Show the reader how elements of your past experience have led you to apply for the job opening. When you’re finished, the cover letter should explain how your past experiences have made you qualified for and interested in the current position. Don’t feel obligated to include every experience; select the ones most relevant to the position.
