When you draft a cover letter along with your resume, you will surely stand out from other job seekers. You should understand the requirement of the employer and then start writing your cover letter. In your cover letter, you should be able to convince the employer that you have the skills and knowledge he is looking for and can be a beneficial asset for his organization. Cover letters are short and should convey the purpose of forcing the recruiter to read your resume. These are the professional letters so you cannot change the format of these letters but the content within the letter should not be same for all the employers.
