I’ve got like 6 years of experience, and a pretty decent resume. I’m now wondering what the vibe should be for the cover letter. Is it meant to be a rewrite of the CV with only things relevant for the position? Or is it a short paragraph or two of why I’m applying, trusting the CV to do CV things?
I’m toying around with this for one company, but also maybe turning into a cookie cutter letter for a few jobs.
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am excited to apply for the Senior Software Developer role at COMPANY. I’ve been looking for a change to experience new technologies and challenges, and to work with a new team for a while now. The position being offered looks like an incredible place for personal development and growth, and I am very interested in being involved.
With over six years of professional software development experience and a history of working collaboratively with clients to create sustainable solutions, I am confident I would be a good fit for the role.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to hearing back and learning more about the position.
Warm regards,
Cuan McLeman
