Cover Letter Writing

Letters that explain the move you are making, answer relocation questions before they are asked, and connect your background to the specific vacancy in front of the reader.

The Cover Letter Is Where You Answer The Question Your Resume Raises

A resume shows what you have done. It cannot explain why you are applying from another country, why you are changing direction, or why a gap exists. Those questions form in the reader's mind and, without an answer, they are usually resolved against you.

What Changes In Practice

A good letter is short and specific. It names the role, gives two or three reasons the reader should keep your application, and deals directly with whatever looks unusual. We write a master version you can reuse and show you exactly which parts to change per vacancy.

  • You are applying from abroad and need to address relocation without sounding apologetic.
  • You are changing industry or function and the logic needs explaining.
  • You have a gap, a redundancy or a short tenure that keeps getting misread.
  • You write letters that end up being a prose version of your resume.
  • You are applying in a market where a motivation letter is expected as standard.

Process

How The Work Runs

01

Vacancy review

You send two or three postings you would genuinely apply to. The letter is built against real requirements, not an abstraction.

02

Argument selection

We agree on the two or three reasons that make the strongest case, and leave everything else out.

03

Writing

Master letter plus the adapted variants delivered together.

04

Revisions

Adjustments until the voice is yours and the claims are ones you would repeat out loud.

Why There Is No Price List

Seniority, target market, document volume and turnaround all change the amount of work involved, so a published flat fee would overcharge some people and underserve others. Send us your current documents and the roles you are aiming at, and you will receive a written scope and an individual price.

Questions About Cover Letter Writing

If your question is not answered here, write to us and a member of the writing team will reply in person.

It varies by market and by employer. Where it is read, a weak one costs you the application; where it is optional, a good one is a cheap advantage. We write it so that it helps in both cases.

Under one page, usually around 250 to 300 words. Longer letters are skimmed rather than read.

Yes. Send the posting with your request and the letter will be built directly against it.

We write for employment applications. Immigration and academic documents follow different rules and we do not take that work.
