A cover letter written for the role you're applying for.
Not a template, not a generic introduction. A cover letter written around the position description and your alignment to the role, by the same specialists who write our resumes - with step-by-step instructions for aligning it to each application.
★★★★★4.9/5 from 737 Trustpilot reviews60,000+ careers since 2011Who uses our cover letter writing service?
Most cover letters are generic. They repeat the resume, fail to address the role and give hiring managers no reason to read on. A well-written cover letter bridges the gap between your experience and what the role needs. Ours are written from scratch using your resume and the position description.
New applicants
Anyone applying for a new role who wants a targeted cover letter to go with their resume - whether we wrote the resume or not.

Frequently asked questions.
Do I need my resume written by Resume People to use this service?
No. The service is open to anyone - all you need is your current resume and the position description for the role.
What do I need to provide?
Your current resume and the full position description. If there's anything specific you'd like addressed - a career change, a particular strength or context around a gap - let us know and we'll factor it in.
How is this different from adapting a template?
Every letter is written from scratch. Your specialist reads the PD in full, identifies the key requirements and builds the letter around your direct alignment to them.
Can I order cover letters for multiple roles?
Yes. Each letter is written specifically for the role it accompanies.
Is this suitable for government applications?
Not always. Many government and public sector roles ask for written responses to competency-based or merit-based application questions rather than a standard cover letter. If your application has questions to address, our federal government application service is the better option. Unsure? Contact us and we'll advise.
What if I need it faster than next business day?
Contact us on 1-800-563-1821 before getting started and we'll let you know if same-day turnaround is available.
