A cover letter can be a useful or damaging tool depending on how you present yourself. It's important to appear confident and capable, no matter how inexperienced you may be. Our class lecture was full of helpful information I will use when searching for a "grown-up" job. I have no work experience outside of the restaurant industry and find myself feeling unsure when I think about sending out resumes and going to job interviews. Now that I know how to write I proper cover letter I will be able to sell a message they will like and present myself as a desirable candidate before they meet me.
Some tips: Be concise
Have a good "hook"
STAND OUT!
Sound up for the task
Do some research/ Know your audience
Use concrete language
A.I.D.A!!!
