The Only Cover Letter Structure You Need
Apr 3, 2026 · 5 min read
A strong cover letter is short, specific, and about them as much as you. Four paragraphs is plenty.
The structure
- Hook: name the role and one specific reason you're excited about this company.
- Proof: one or two achievements that map directly to the job's needs.
- Fit: connect your strengths to what they're trying to accomplish.
- Close: a confident, low-pressure call to talk.
