Write a Cover Letter in Minutes
You found a job you want, but you don’t know what to say in a cover letter? You’re not alone. Many people aren’t sure what a cover letter is — or how to write one. The Cover Letter Generator on Jobs First Durham (JFD) makes it quick and easy.
What is a Cover Letter?
A cover letter is a short message that goes with your resume. It tells the employer why you want the job and why you’re a good fit. Think of it as your chance to introduce yourself.
What Does the Cover Letter Generator Do?
This tool asks you a few simple questions and then creates the letter for you.
You can:
- Choose the job you’re applying for
- Pick a resume you already made in JFD
- Add your top 3 skills (like teamwork, customer service, organizing)
- Explain any gaps in work (like taking care of kids or going back to school)
- Add your contact info and choose from 9 letter styles
- Edit the letter or keep it as is
- Download and print
