Re: Graphic Designer Position
Dear [HR Director],
When writing a cover letter, the first paragraph tells the employer why you are writing. You may include the name of a shared personal contact, if someone has referred you or recommend that you contact the person or company.
You can also include your college and current status and a short sentence on why you feel you are the ideal candidate for the Computer Graphic Designer job.
When writing a job application letter for a Graphic Designer position the middle paragraphs allow you to explain to the organization/company what you’ve got to offer.
Start off by stating you’re involvement with the Graphic Design industry. Specify the names of contractors or corporations you’ve held positions within the industry and for what period of time did you hold each position. Mention your level of ability in intellectual ability, analytical ability, communication skills, organization skills, ability to work in groups, perseverance, imaginative and creative potential.
List some of your responsibilities and describe how it’s relevant to the work you are applying for. Provide a brief anecdote if necessary to emphasize a point or a skill. List a few of your personal qualities that makes you stand out. Include any internship experiences, coursework certifications, language skills, volunteering, or co-curricular activities, etc.
Be sure to provide any skills, tools, computer languages beneficial to the company’s needs in the position in which you are applying for.
The paragraph in the end must describe how and when you would follow up.
Follow up is usually your responsibility if the job description especially implies not to make any phone calls or email follow up. When emailing your documents, follow-up is generally 24 – 48 hours; if sending documents via mail follow up is in general in one week.
Sincere regards,
