Parts of a Cover Letter

A resume generally include some standard sections:

  1. Contact information: a list of information that allows a potential employer to reach the applicant.
  2. Objective/Summary: a short sentence which describes the position an applicant is interested in obtaining and a brief list of skills and achievements applicable to the position of interest.
  3. Profile: a short statement which encourages a potential employer to read further.
  4. Call to Action: closes the letter, and requests an interview.
