How long should a covering letter be? i am going to write a job application letter and i don’t want it to be either too long or too small so what is the best lenght for this cover letters?
Very tricky. I would say definatly not longer than a page, they are likely to get bored before getting to the end. Certainly a few paragraphs, it really depends on how much information you need to include. As you are aiming it at a specific job/field, you should include some experience you have in the area, but this should lead them to look at your CV for more information
I would say that half a page to three-quarters of a page is fine. Don’t make your paragraphs too long and chunky, as this makes it difficult for the employer to read and find the information he/she is looking for.
It should be no more than a page, and not all in one or two chunks. Definitely make sure you have 3 paragraphs at the very least.
