PRACTICAL NOTES
Use the employer and role name exactly as shown in the vacancy. Choose one relevant project and explain why it matters for this team. Keep the opening direct, the evidence specific and the final request brief. Read the generated document aloud before downloading.
A concrete example
For a junior design role, connect a real portfolio project to the vacancy: “I created the product images and layout for our college event page.” Explain your contribution rather than claiming experience you do not have.
This is a document builder, not a hiring service. It cannot verify an employer or research a company. Replace generic statements with your own evidence and check that names and dates are correct in the PDF.

WRITING A LETTER
A cover letter works best when it answers a question the resume cannot answer on its own: why this work, and why your experience is relevant now. Read the vacancy once for required skills and again for the problems the team seems to be solving. Then choose one or two examples from your own work. You do not need a dramatic life story or a list of every skill you have. The builder can arrange your draft, but it cannot judge whether a claim is accurate or whether the employer values a particular example.
Use the role and employer name as written in the posting. In the first paragraph, identify the position and offer a concrete connection. A student applying for an operations internship might mention a campus event they scheduled and tracked, provided that work actually happened. Avoid an opening such as "I am passionate about everything your company does" unless you can explain which work drew your attention. If you found the role through a referral, ask whether the person is comfortable being named before adding them.
Pick an achievement that matches one requirement. Explain the situation briefly, the part you handled and what the work produced. For a design role, link to a portfolio piece and describe the choices you made; for a data role, describe the dataset or reporting task and how someone used the result. A number helps when you have a reliable record, but an invented percentage weakens the letter. The strongest example often concerns a small, completed piece of work that you can discuss in an interview.
Close by making it easy to connect your letter to the attached resume or portfolio. Thank the reader and state your interest in discussing the role without demanding a reply by a deadline. Read the finished letter aloud to catch repeated phrases and sentences that sound unlike you. Check spelling of names, job title, company and contact details. When saving the PDF, inspect the page break and make sure the sign-off remains with the final paragraph. Keep a copy of the exact letter you submitted so you can refer to it later.
If an application form offers only a small text box, adapt the same argument instead of pasting a full page with greetings and sign-off. Keep the role, one relevant example and the reason you want to contribute. When the employer explicitly says a letter is optional, decide whether you have something useful to add beyond the resume. A short, tailored note can help; a generic page of praise usually cannot. Use plain language that sounds like you and make every sentence earn its place.
Use the employer's language only when it describes work you can genuinely do. Repeating every keyword from the vacancy makes the letter harder to read and leaves no space for evidence. If a requirement is new to you, connect it to a closely related task you completed and explain the connection honestly. A specific, modest claim is easier to trust than a broad promise.
