🔥[06-26] Making cover letter spotlight the right story at first glance


Listen Later

Felipe Ortiz: I want to revise the final cover letter for a job I really want, and do a quick overview of requirements to apply and feel good and confident to press the send button before end of next week.

  • Lead with the opportunity; be clear about what the job is in the first sentence.
  • Shorten the intro to quickly highlight experience with clients like Netflix, Microsoft, and Sony, and clearly show your agency background.
  • Trim the second paragraph to quickly transition into joining Legs of Steel, saving the rest of your story for the interview.
  • Show that you appreciate their work by referencing specific elements that caught your eye or inspired you.
  • If you mentioned a specific piece in your LinkedIn message, reference it again briefly to help them connect the dots if the same person is reading it.
