There are plenty of books and pamphlets on how to write a job resume. Remember, however, the importance of that covering letter. It’s just as essential as the resume itself. Perhaps more so.
Place upfront what is most important about your skills, taken from your resume, on to the covering letter. Outline very quickly your professional skills. Tune the theme to what that skill is; technical. or leadership, or academic, whatever.
The covering letter ought to quickly reprise what you are really selling about yourself. That will make it easier for a prospective employer to scan yours from, perhaps, hundreds of other job requests.
