Why a Cover Letter is Important

Posted by Joondalup Resume on 26 Sep 2026

A cover letter to accompany a resume is an important part of the application process. While a resume provides the details of your education, qualifications and work experiences, a cover letter will allow you to introduce yourself to the manager who is hiring you and present the reasons why you’re the best fit for the job.

In highlighting the ways your skills match the requirements of the job, you will enhance your chances of securing an interview.
  • In response to any concerns that might arise: The cover letter is a way for you to address any concerns the hiring manager might have about your qualifications. For example, if have a gap in your work history or lack of experience in a specific area and you want to justify why this shouldn’t be a problem and what other skills help to make an uproar.
  • Making you stand out A well-written and professional cover letter can make you stand out from other candidates. By tailoring your cover letter to the particular job and company, it will show that you’ve done your research and you know what the business is looking for.

I moved to Australia 2.5 years ago. After feeling stagnated in my job, I started to look at my resume again and attempted to update it. After realising it was extremely outdated, I enlisted the help of Perth Resume. Tanja was great, very prompt at replying to any queries I had and returned an updated resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile within 3 business days. I must say the documents look great. Highly recommended.
