A cover letter can feel like the hardest part of a job application. You know you can do the job, but how do you show that on the page?

Your cover letter is your chance to show your enthusiasm for the role and demonstrate your skills with clear, specific examples.

Instead of simply saying “I love this company” or “I’m great at this”, explain why you’re interested and where you’ve used that skill in practice.

From tailoring your cover letter to the job description to using real examples of your experience, these tips can help you write a stronger, more specific application.

Save this for your next job application. 🩵

As I was preparing this post, I caught myself doubting whether I was approaching this in the right way. The self doubt crept in, in a way self doubt can make us underestimate ourselves and question our confidence in doing something.

But confidence isn’t about having all the answers. It’s built by showing up, taking the first step and discovering you’re capable of more than you thought.

We’d love to hear your tips. What’s helped you build confidence?

If you’re endlessly applying for jobs and struggling to get interviews, your CV could be getting lost before a recruiter sees it.

Many employers use AI and Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to help screen applications, so how you format and tailor your CV matters.

From using clear headings to matching the language in the job advert, these simple changes can help make sure your experience can be found by AI and passed on to a real person.
