Cover Letter Templates and Instructions

Text Box: Before selecting a TEMPLATE to the left, please review the Guidelines and Example below. It is a good idea to have a handwritten DRAFT of your tentative letter, PLUS pertinent information such as addressee’s mailing address, phone number, email address and name of contact. Once you are ready, RIGHT click on the template of choice, SAVE TARGET AS a name that indicates WHEN you started the letter (for example “Cover Letter 6.14.2007). Then, OPEN the letter and fill in the shaded areas or replace print areas with your paragraphs. SAVE FREQUENTLY. UPDATE REGULARLY.
