Generally speaking, it's best to keep a cover letter to around a page in length, unless otherwise specified on the job advertisement and position instructions.


The team at Client Centric provide a resume and cover letter writing service which usually is no more then a page in length.


Cover letters are tailored and straight to the point, in that they:

- Encapsulate experience

- Have a concise introduction

- Incorporate role requirements

- Relate back to the candidates experience
