  Remember that employers will pick whichever candidate they think is best for them. Don’t talk about why the opening is perfect for you, but instead why you are the perfect candidate for the opening. The difference is subtle but important to keep in mind!

  要牢记,雇主会聘用那位他们认为最合适该岗位的应聘者。不要总是强调这个空缺对你来说多棒,要解释为什么你是最适合该位置的人。

  In your closing paragraph, inspire confidence and show enthusiasm. Restate your interest in the position and say that you look forward to discussing your qualifications at their earliest convenience (feel free to use those exact words!). Providing your contact information and suggesting an in-person discussion show your enthusiasm, put the reader in the mindset that they would like to contact you, and make it easy for them to do so.

  在结尾段,表现出来你的自信和热情。重申自己对该职位的兴趣,并表示期待尽早获得面试资格。提供自己的联系方式,并提议面谈机会来展现自己的热情,让雇主想要联系并深入了解你。

  Finish the letter by thanking the reader for their time and consideration, and then conclude with:

  Sincerely,

  [Your Name]

  结尾,要感谢雇主花时间阅读我们的cover letter,类似我们中文里的“感谢您在百忙之中阅读这份求职信,诚挚的期望能得到面试机会。”

  最后,跟一般书信的落款一样,写上Sincerely XXX.

  A successful cover letter will set you on the road to employment. Once you’ve written the letter, reread, reread, reread. It can’t be stressed enough that this is your first impression to the employer. Make it count!

  These days, applications are often submitted electronically by email or online. If you submit your letter in this way, submit it as a .pdf file rather than a .doc or .docx. This way, it looks cleaner and more professional.

  Soon, you’ll be on your way to the interview!

  一封成功的cover letter会让你成功走上就业之路。写完了之后,要自己反复读几遍,这可是你给雇主的第一印象。

  如今,申请资料都是线上投递的,如果你是通过邮件发送,尽量提交pdf文档,而不是word文档,这样能使你的letter看起来更加整洁和专业。
