This is a document that complements your résumé in which you indicate why you feel you are right for the offer and you present yourself with a more personal tone.
What it should contain
Header: Personal information (name, professional title) and contact information (email address, phone number) and employer information (name, job, company).
Salutation: aimed at the employer personally. If you know the job and/or name of the person you are addressing, personalize it!
Introduction: personal, yet professional, presentation, adapted to the job and the company (How did you learn about this vacancy/company? Why are you writing this letter?)
Body: why are you the best candidate and why is the job perfect for you. Indicate your most recent and/or relevant job, as well as some skills, achievements or projects to highlight in relation to the job.
Close: provide information on your availability to receive a call or conduct an interview, and add your name (signature). You can also repeat your contact information.
Try to avoid
Do not send a standard letter without personalizing it.
It must always be accompanied by a good résumé.
Do not limit yourself to repeating what is in your résumé.
The length should not be much more than half a sheet of paper.
Spelling and grammar must be impeccable.
Use storytelling, highlight what makes you different.
Highlight the skills/abilities that are most related to the job.
Use vocabulary appropriate to the field you are applying in.
Follow the same style/template as your résumé.
Brief summary/presentation about who you are professionally, including information relevant to the offer.
It is a paragraph of 5-6 lines at the start of your résumé and is not required.
How to respond correctly? Here are some tips that can help you answer the typical interview questions and know how to respond to the most complicated ones.
Tell me about yourself. Combine skills with the description of yourself. Point out your “Unique Selling Proposition”, what makes you different.
What do you know about our company? Research the company’s website in advance. Highlight the projects and areas of the company culture that fit best with your profile.
Why are you interested in this job? Take this opportunity to show your enthusiasm about working with them! Briefly indicate your experience related to the duties of the job. Combine it with the company’s projects and culture.
Strengths and Weaknesses. Avoid the typical answers; be honest. Give examples of your strengths (why do you think you have them, how have you developed them, etc.). Select areas of improvement that are not related to the job and always indicate the actions you are taking to improve them.
Handling Complicated Situations. Focus on your contribution to the action and the result obtained. Indicate whether other people contributed to the resolution.
What motivates you? Be professional and indicate why. Try to tie it into the skills that can play in your favor.
What do you have that other candidates don’t? / Why should I hire you? Talk about what you can contribute beyond your technical knowledge. Highlight your affinity to the company culture. Summarize your profile based on the duties of the job.
Why do you want to leave your current job? Don't speak poorly of your experience in another company; focus on your development and desire to face new challenges.
Personal Questions. You are not required to answer. The recommendation is to tell the truth naturally.
Questions About Salary. Highlight that the most important thing is not the salary, that you value other things such as the project and the opportunities for growth they offer.
