The cover letter style |
 |
 |
What style works best to catch the recruiter's eye?
Be dynamic, clear and direct, and observe the following guidelines:
- Watch out for abbreviations and jargon that are only familiar to specialists and not necessarily the person who will open your letter. It's best to avoid abbreviations and to write any acronyms in full unless the term happens to be used in the ad.
- If writing in a non-English language, it is better to avoid anglicisms unless they are common in your field (banking, information technology, etc.).
- Avoid repetition.
