Northern Lights Canada has provided online resources below to help you in building your job and career search.
Cover letters are your introduction to the employer. A properly written cover letter will tie your qualifications, experience, knowledge, skills, abilities and strengths to that of the job posting. Because this is your first point of interaction with an employer, your cover letter should be written with careful consideration. Check and double check for spelling errors, proper use of grammar and that your cover letter is engaging and specifically targeted towards that employer and position.
