The Difference Between an E-Note and a Cover Letter

[Joyzfsddt66]

To follow up on my last posting entitled Don’t Make This Mistake When Writing A Cover Letter, , I’m a huge advocate for creating a separate, customized and targeted cover letter to accompany the resume submission. There is, however, a trend of acceptance for an bosnia and herzegovina whatsapp phone number e-note letter format so in today’s blog I shall touch upon the similarities and differences between an e-note and a traditional cover letter.

Both documents serve 5 key purposes:

Introduce you to a specific person or target employer.
Market and position your candidacy above other job seekers.
Promote your unique promise of value.
Highlight achievements, education and other attributes pertinent to the job.
Initiate a call to action: ideally, a request for an interview.
Unlike a traditional full page cover letter, an e-note is shorter (think 1/3 to 1/2 of a page) but still captures the essence of your career success. E-notes are either contained in the body of an email or uploaded onto job boards (and should not be confused with a digital notepad).

Due to the brevity of e-notes, clear and concise writing is a must. After reviewing a job posting or conducting due diligence on the company to uncover how you may be of value, write your e-note focusing on a finite topic relaying your top 3 or 4 assets or a short career story validating your expertise in that topic.
