A cover letter works as a very brief introduction of yourself to the potential emplyer, it does show your attitude towards the job and potential emplyer. Keep it short, attractive and interesting reading in a polite manner.: P; o& B5 N. P6 p0 o* Z1 l' V

Generally, the potential emplyer (or the human resources manager) has only 15-30 seconds to read it.
