Once you have completed your studies, it is vital to understand the business landscape around you if you want to find your first job or internship. Although job boards offer a wide selection, going a step further and finding companies that interest you yourself is an effective way to increase your chances of landing your first job. By researching company information, you will learn about open positions and roles held, as well as the team's philosophies and values.
We have already emphasized several times that sending a *cover letter *gives us the opportunity to stand out and better promote our candidacy, but it also goes beyond the *CV *by providing information additional information that completes our presentation. The two documents therefore constitute the main tools of this initial phase.
If you come from finish your studies, cover letter will allow you to highlight the *skills, aptitudes and abilities acquired during the *years of study, whether from a theoretical or practical point of view: Methodologies and techniques learned, curricular internship experiences, participation in groups students, collaboration in projects, volunteering…
Even without experience, your cover letter will highlight your skills and your added value in the company, emphasizing your youth and up-to-date knowledge in the sector.
It is important not to neglect the importance of training, professional practices, courses and languages.
Let's take a closer look at each part:
* *First paragraph or introduction *: Seek to motivate the reader to continue reading: Explain *the reason for the letter: *whether it is a spontaneous application or whether it is a response to a published job offer. It is important to say here why we would find it interesting to work with the company (Is it because of their values? We are attracted to their products, etc.).
Second paragraph: talk about yourself and highlight your skills relevant to the company, including your education, language and computer skills, international experiences and hobbies.
* *Fourth paragraph *: Show your availability and interest in getting to know the company during a future interview. * *Last Paragraph of the cover letter*: Use a cordial or grateful phrase, such as "Thank you for your time" or "kind regards," and don't forget to sign *your name at the end of the letter.
Remember that you must always accompany this document with your CV can send them by email or through digital networks such as LinkedIn.
