Professional Resume Writing Service

Grab the attention of the person you want to work for with your cover letter.

How?

If you are not including a cover letter with your resume you are leaving offers on the table. That is especially true if someone has referred you to the position. In this cover letter how to, you will find a way to make your cover letter even stronger and you will stand out from the crowd.

Check any marketing letter you get in the mail or that you see on the internet. You will find that most of the time the marketing letter will contain a postscript. We’re talking about a P.S., as in P.S., read my postscript! A postscript is writing added after the main body of the letter. A postscript is a great way to highlight certain information without using the common, bold text or the rude, ALL CAPS.

A postscript is not commonly used in a resume’s cover letter, but it’s an excellent way of bringing the reader’s attention back to the important information. That information can include why a potential employer should hire you, or the best way to reach you for an interview.

What should you include in your postscript? Here’s a P.S. to get you started:

P.S. I am very excited at the possibility of working for [Company Name]. Please call me anytime for an interview. You can always reach me on my mobile number, 555-111-2222.

That’s pretty simple, right? You can include any information that you would like to highlight or repeat in your postscript. Here’s another one:

P.S. I’ll follow up in two days on [date]. I would love a chance to meet with you to discuss [the open position]. You can contact me at 555-111-2222.

Postscripts are an excellent way of grabbing someone’s attention. If they only read one part of the letter, it’ll probably be the postscript.

P.S. It’s easy! It’s effective. You’re reading one now!
