Cover letters

A cover letter that matches your resume

Pair every application with a tailored letter using the same template, fonts and accent colour as your resume — so your application looks like one deliberate package.

How it works: build your resume first — your cover letter is written from it, so the two match and you never retype your experience. Once the resume is done, the cover letter takes about two minutes.

Start with my resume, then the cover letter

Start with the resume, then the letter

The resume is the foundation: it holds your roles, dates, achievements and skills. The cover letter builder pulls from it, so build the resume first and the letter is mostly written for you — then you only tailor the opening and one proof paragraph per job.

Do cover letters still matter?

For competitive roles and career changes they matter a lot: the letter explains context a resume cannot — why this company, why this move, and what you will do in the first 90 days.

Tailored, not generic

Start from your resume content, then adjust the opening and one proof paragraph per job. That is usually the difference between a template letter and one that gets read.
