Writing a CAREER CHANGE Cover Letter


Person reading someone's cover letter for a career change
Be very specific in your cover letter about why you feel most suited to the role

When making a career change, it is essential to have a cover letter.


Write to the hiring manager demonstrating why you are a good fit for the role, despite your lack of experience.


A persuasive cover letter will convince the employer that your work experience is a strength, not a disadvantage.


Make sure you are clear on your goals and reasons for switching careers and that you are in a position for a successful career change.


In your letter, communicate why you are qualified, highlight your transferrable skills and express your passion for the company.
