Cover Letter Parts & Tips

Your cover letter’s header should be the same as your resume’s header.

Headers should include:

Phone Number
Shortened LinkedIn URL (optional, but highly encouraged)

Application Information (Optional)

Just under your header, you may elect to include information about the position you are applying for and who should receive your application . If included, this section provides an opportunity to show preparedness and understanding.

A tailored greeting can set you apart from other applicants. Avoid using generic language such as, “To whom it may concern.” Instead, conduct research to uncover who will be reviewing your application.

If you can identify an individual name , include “Dear [name].” Moreover, skip using formal titles such as “Mr.” or “Ms.” unless you are certain that is what the reviewer prefers.

If you cannot find an individual’s name, specify the company and department – like this, “Dear KPMG Audit Team.” Alternatively, you could use “Dear hiring manager.”

If two or more people will review your application, address the group by using multiple names or “Dear hiring committee.”

Opening Paragraph

In your cover letter’s opening paragraph, clearly state what you are applying to and succinctly communicate your why .

Your why might be:

Why your top skill, qualifications, or prior experience fits that position
Why you are personally connected to that employer or industry
Why you are positioned to solve a problem or meet a need
Why your background has prepared you to succeed in that position, on that team, at that company, etc.

By including your why, your opening paragraph becomes unique to you. Moreover, you draw the reader in immediately, addressing what they care about and need to know right away.

You can also mention how you learned of the position – but note that this is only helpful if you were referred by someone the employer knows.

Body Paragraphs

In the body of your cover letter, provide specific examples of how your top skills and qualifications align with the position .

Steps to follow to draft body paragraphs:

Start by picking two or three of your most relevant and transferable skills or qualifications. Take note of keywords and verbs listed in the position description.
Dedicate a short paragraph to each skill or qualification, telling a story about an experience where you gained or grew that skill or qualification. Bonus points for including accomplishments and impact.
Conclude by explaining how you plan to apply that skill or qualification to – succeed in that position, support the employer’s mission, add value to their team, solve a big challenge, or contribute to the company’s future, etc.

Structuring your body paragraphs in this way will help the reader understand what you offer and why you are a good fit for the position.

Closing Paragraph

Keep your closing paragraph concise.

First, summarize what makes you a great fit for the position within one sentence.
Then, state your excitement for next steps in the application process and thank the employer for their time and consideration.

A professional sign off should have a closing phrase and your typed name .

Appropriate closing phrases include:

Best regards
Respectfully
With thanks

Do your homework

Cover letters should be customized for each application and speak directly to the position’s goals and needs . Spend time reviewing the position description before drafting your cover letter. Make it clear to the reader that you wrote your cover letter for that position.

Establish a brand

Matching the styling of your cover letter to other application documents, such as your resume, demonstrates that you can craft a consistent brand identity . Use the same fonts and formatting across all documents.

Elaborate, don’t reiterate

Cover letters say what your resume cannot – transforming a list of bullet points into a person. Do not simply repeat everything on your resume in your cover letter. Put another way, your cover letter should give concrete examples of your most transferable skills and relevant experiences.

Set yourself apart, objectively

Avoid clichés and vague descriptions like “I am hardworking.” Instead, show the hiring manager what makes you objectively different from other applicants. Highlight transferable skills and relevant experiences . Moreover, do not be afraid to incorporate your personality into what you write .

Follow common practices

First and foremost, keep your cover letter to less than one page . Then, check that your font size is readable and your margins are realistic (between .5 – 1 inch). Finally, submit your cover letter in whatever format is requested, or default to submitting as a readable PDF .

Consider alternative formats

Sometimes applications ask that you omit a cover letter, or they might not mention one at all. Consider conveying the information you would have included in a cover letter via email or in an additional information field on the application . See our Email Sample Cover Letter for more guidance .

Academic Cover Letters

What is this handout about.

The long list of application materials required for many academic teaching jobs can be daunting. This handout will help you tackle one of the most important components: the cover letter or letter of interest. Here you will learn about writing and revising cover letters for academic teaching jobs in the United States of America.

What is an academic cover letter?

An academic cover letter describes your experiences and interest as a candidate for a specific position. It introduces you to the hiring committee and demonstrates how your academic background fits with the description of the position.

What do cover letters for academic teaching jobs typically contain?

At their most basic level, academic cover letters accomplish three things: one, they express your interest in the job; two, they provide a brief synopsis of your research and teaching; and three, they summarize your past experiences and achievements to illustrate your competence for the job. For early-career scholars, cover letters are typically no more than two pages (up to four pages for senior scholars). Occasionally, a third page may make sense for an early-career scholar if the application does not require a separate teaching statement and/or research statement. Digital versions of cover letters often contain hyperlinks to your CV or portfolio page. For some fields, cover letters may also include examples of your work, including music, popular articles, and other multimedia related to your research, service, or teaching available online. Typically, letters appear on departmental or university letterhead and include your signature. Above all, a strong cover letter presents your accomplishments and your familiarity with the institution and with the position.

How should I prepare to write my academic cover letter?

Like all writing, composing a cover letter is a process. The process may be as short as a few hours or as long as several weeks, but at the end the letter should present you as a strong candidate for the job. The following section has tips and questions for thinking through each stage of this writing process. You don’t need to answer all of these questions to write the letter; they are meant to help you brainstorm ideas.

Before you begin writing your cover letter, consider researching the institution, the department, and the student population. Incorporating all three aspects in your letter will help convey your interest in the position.

Get to know the institution. When crafting your cover letter, be aware of the type of institution to which you are applying. Knowing how the institution presents itself can help you tailor your letter and make it more specific.

Where is the institution located?
Is it on a quarter-system or semester-system?
What type of institution is it? Is it an R1? Is it an R2? Is it a liberal arts college? Is it an HBCU? Is it a community college? A private high school?
What is the institution’s culture? Is it teaching-focused or research-focused? Does it privilege experiential learning? Does it value faculty involvement outside the classroom? Is it affiliated with a specific religious tradition?
Does it have any specific institutional commitments?
How does the institution advocate for involvement in its local community?
What are the professional development opportunities for new and junior faculty?

Learn about the department. Knowing the specific culture and needs of the department can help you reach your audience: the department members who will be reading your documents and vetting you as a candidate.

Who is on the search committee? Who is the search committee chair?
What is the official name of the department?
Which different subfields make up the department?
Is it a dual appointment or a position in a dual department?
How does the department participate in specific types of student outreach?
Does the department have graduate students? Does it offer a terminal Master’s degree, Ph.D., or both? How large are the cohorts? How are they funded?
Does the department encourage or engage in interdisciplinary work?
Does the majority of the department favor certain theoretical or methodological approaches?
Does the department have partnerships with local institutions? If so, which ones?
Is the department attempting to fill a specific vacancy, or is it an entirely new position?
What are the typical course offerings in the department? Which courses might you be expected to teach? What courses might you be able to provide that are not currently available?

Consider the students. The search committee will often consider how you approach instructing and mentoring the student body. Sometimes committees will even reserve a position for a student or solicit student feedback on a candidate:

What populations constitute the majority of the undergraduate population?
Have there been any shifts in the student population recently?
Do students largely come from in-state or out-of-state?
Is there an international student population? If so, from which countries?
Is the university recruiting students from traditionally underrepresented populations?
Are students particularly active on campus? If so, how?

Many answers to these questions can be found both in the job description and on the institution’s website. If possible, consider contacting someone you know at the institution to ask about the culture directly. You can also use the institution’s course catalog, recruitment materials, alumni magazine, and other materials to get answers to these questions. The key is to understand the sort of institution to which you are applying, its immediate needs, and its future trajectory.

Remember, there is a resource that can help you with all three aspects—people. Reach out to your advisor, committee members, faculty mentors, and other contacts for insight into the prospective department’s culture and faculty. They might even help you revise your letter based on their expertise. Think of your job search as an opportunity to cultivate these relationships.

After you have done some initial research, think about how your experiences have prepared you for the job and identify the ones that seem the most relevant. Consider your previous research, internships, graduate teaching, and summer experiences. Here are some topics and questions to get you started thinking about what you might include.

Research Experiences. Consider how your research has prepared you for an academic career. Since the letter is a relatively short document, select examples of your research that really highlight who you are as a scholar, the direction you see your work going, and how your scholarship will contribute to the institution’s research community.

What are your current research interests?
What topics would you like to examine in the future?
How have you pursued those research interests?
Have you traveled for your research?
Have you published any of your research? Have you presented it at a conference, symposium, or elsewhere?
Have you worked or collaborated with scholars at different institutions on projects? If so, what did these collaborations produce?
Have you made your research accessible to your local community?
Have you received funding or merit-based fellowships for your research?
What other research contributions have you made? This may include opinion articles, book chapters, or participating as a journal reviewer.
How do your research interests relate to those of other faculty in the department or fill a gap?

Teaching Experience. Think about any teaching experience you may have. Perhaps you led recitations as a teaching assistant, taught your own course, or guest lectured. Pick a few experiences to discuss in your letter that demonstrate something about your teaching style or your interest in teaching.

What courses are you interested in teaching for the department? What courses have you taught that discussed similar topics or themes?
What new courses can you imagine offering the department that align with their aim and mission?
Have you used specific strategies that were helpful in your instruction?
What sort of resources do you typically use in the classroom?
Do you have anecdotes that demonstrate your teaching style?
What is your teaching philosophy?
When have you successfully navigated a difficult concept or topic in the classroom, and what did you learn?
What other opportunities could you provide to students?

Internships/Summer/Other Experiences. Brainstorm a list of any conferences, colloquiums, and workshops you have attended, as well as any ways you have served your department, university, or local community. This section will highlight how you participate in your university and scholarly community. Here are some examples of things you might discuss:

Professional development opportunities you may have pursued over the summer or during your studies
International travel for research or presentations
Any research you’ve done in a non-academic setting
Presentations at conferences
Participation in symposia, reading groups, working groups, etc.
Internships in which you may have implemented your research or practical skills related to your discipline
Participation in community engagement projects
Participation in or leadership of any scholarly and/or university organizations

In answering these questions, create a list of the experiences that you think best reflect you as a scholar and teacher. In choosing which experiences to highlight, consider your audience and what they would find valuable or relevant. Taking the time to really think about your reader will help you present yourself as an applicant well-qualified for the position.

Writing a draft

Remember that the job letter is an opportunity to introduce yourself and your accomplishments and to communicate why you would be a good fit for the position. Typically, search committees will want to know whether you are a capable job candidate, familiar with the institution, and a great future addition to the department’s faculty. As such, be aware of how the letter’s structure and content reflect your preparedness for the position.

The structure of your cover letter should reflect the typical standards for letter writing in the country in which the position is located (the list below reflects the standards for US letter writing). This usually includes a salutation, body, and closing, as well as proper contact information. If you are affiliated with a department, institution, or organization, the letter should be on letterhead.

Use a simple, readable font in a standard size, such as 10-12pt. Some examples of fonts that may be conventional in your field include Arial, Garamond, Times New Roman, and Verdana, among other similar fonts.
Do not indent paragraphs.
Separate all paragraphs by a line and justify them to the left.
Make sure that any included hyperlinks work.
Include your signature in the closing.

Before you send in your letter, make sure you proofread and look for formatting mistakes. You’ll read more about proofreading and revising later in this handout!

The second most important aspect of your letter is its content. Since the letter is the first chance to provide an in-depth introduction, it should expand on who you are as a scholar and possible faculty member. Below are some elements to consider including when composing your letter.

Identify the position you are applying to and introduce yourself. Traditionally, the first sentence of a job letter includes the full name of the position and where you discovered the job posting. This is also the place to introduce yourself and describe why you are applying for this position. Since the goal of a job letter is to persuade the search committee to include you on the list of candidates for further review, you may want to include an initial claim as to why you are a strong candidate for the position. Some questions you might consider:

What is your current status (ABD, assistant professor, post-doc, etc.)?
If you are ABD, have you defended your dissertation? If not, when will you defend?
Why are you interested in this position?
Why are you a strong candidate for this position?

Describe your research experience and interests. For research-centered positions, such as positions at R1 or other types of research-centered universities, include information about your research experience and current work early in the letter. For many applicants, current work will be the dissertation project. If this is the case, some suggest calling your “dissertation research” your “current project” or “work,” as this may help you present yourself as an emerging scholar rather than a graduate student. Some questions about your research that you might consider:

What research experiences have you had?
What does your current project investigate?
What are some of the important methods you applied?
Have you collaborated with others in your research?
Have you acquired specific skills that will be useful for the future?
Have you received special funding? If so, what kind?
Has your research received any accolades or rewards?
What does your current project contribute to the field?
Where have you presented your research?
Have you published your research? If so, where? Or are you working on publishing your work?
How does your current project fit the job description?

Present your plans for future research. This section presents your research agenda and usually includes a description of your plans for future projects and research publications. Detailing your future research demonstrates to the search committee that you’ve thought about a research trajectory and can work independently. If you are applying to a teaching-intensive position, you may want to minimize this section and/or consider including a sentence or two on how this research connects to undergraduate and/or graduate research opportunities. Some questions to get you started:

What is your next research project/s?
How does this connect to your current and past work?
What major theories/methods will you use?
How will this project contribute to the field?
Where do you see your specialty area or subfield going in the next ten years and how does your research contribute to or reflect this?
Will you be collaborating with anyone? If so, with whom?
How will this future project encourage academic discourse?
Do you already have funding? If so, from whom? If not, what plans do you have for obtaining funding?
How does your future research expand upon the department’s strengths while simultaneously diversifying the university’s research portfolio? (For example, does your future research involve emerging research fields, state-of-the-art technologies, or novel applications?)

Describe your teaching experience and highlight teaching strategies. This section allows you to describe your teaching philosophy and how you apply this philosophy in your classroom. Start by briefly addressing your teaching goals and values. Here, you can provide specific examples of your teaching methods by describing activities and projects you assign students. Try to link your teaching and research together. For example, if you research the rise of feminism in the 19th century, consider how you bring either the methodology or the content of your research into the classroom. For a teaching-centered institution, such as a small liberal arts college or community college, you may want to emphasize your teaching more than your research. If you do not have any teaching experience, you could describe a training, mentoring, or coaching situation that was similar to teaching and how you would apply what you learned in a classroom.

What is your teaching philosophy? How is your philosophy a good fit for the department in which you are applying to work?
What sort of teaching strategies do you use in the classroom?
What is your teaching style? Do you lecture? Do you emphasize discussion? Do you use specific forms of interactive learning?
What courses have you taught?
What departmental courses are you prepared to teach?
Will you be able to fill in any gaps in the departmental course offerings?
What important teaching and/or mentoring experiences have you had?
How would you describe yourself in the classroom?
What type of feedback have you gotten from students?
Have you received any awards or recognition for your teaching?

Talk about your service work. Service is often an important component of an academic job description. This can include things like serving on committees or funding panels, providing reviews, and doing community outreach. The cover letter gives you an opportunity to explain how you have involved yourself in university life outside the classroom. For instance, you could include descriptions of volunteer work, participation in initiatives, or your role in professional organizations. This section should demonstrate ways in which you have served your department, university, and/or scholarly community. Here are some additional examples you could discuss:

Participating in graduate student or junior faculty governance
Sitting on committees, departmental or university-wide
Partnerships with other university offices or departments
Participating in community-partnerships
Participating in public scholarship initiatives
Founding or participating in any university initiatives or programs
Creating extra-curricular resources or presentations

Present yourself as a future faculty member. This section demonstrates who you will be as a colleague. It gives you the opportunity to explain how you will collaborate with faculty members with similar interests; take part in departmental and/or institution wide initiatives or centers; and participate in departmental service. This shows your familiarity with the role of faculty outside the classroom and your ability to add to the departmental and/or institutional strengths or fill in any gaps.

What excites you about this job?
What faculty would you like to collaborate with and why? (This answer may be slightly tricky. See the section on name dropping below.)
Are there any partnerships in the university or outside of it that you wish to participate in?
Are there any centers associated with the university or in the community that you want to be involved in?
Are there faculty initiatives that you are passionate about?
Do you have experience collaborating across various departments or within your own department?
In what areas will you be able to contribute?
Why would you make an excellent addition to the faculty at this institution?

Compose a strong closing. This short section should acknowledge that you have sent in all other application documents and include a brief thank you for the reader’s time and/or consideration. It should also state your willingness to forward additional materials and indicate what you would like to see as next steps (e.g., a statement that you look forward to speaking with the search committee). End with a professional closing such as “Sincerely” or “Kind Regards” followed by your full name.

If you are finding it difficult to write the different sections of your cover letter, consider composing the other academic job application documents (the research statement, teaching philosophy, and diversity statement) first and then summarizing them in your job letter.

Different kinds of letters may be required for different types of jobs. For example, some jobs may focus on research. In this case, emphasize your research experiences and current project/s. Other jobs may be more focused on teaching. In this case, highlight your teaching background and skills. Below are two models for how you could change your letter’s organization based on the job description and the institution. The models offer a guide for you to consider how changing the order of information and the amount of space dedicated to a particular topic changes the emphasis of the letter.

Research-Based Position Job Letter Example:

Teaching-based position job letter example:.

Remember your first draft does not have to be your last. Try to get feedback from different readers, especially if it is one of your first applications. It is not uncommon to go through several stages of revisions. Check out the Writing Center’s handout on editing and proofreading and video on proofreading to help with this last stage of writing.

Potential pitfalls

Using the word dissertation. Some search committee members may see the word “dissertation” as a red flag that an applicant is too focused on their role as a graduate student rather than as a prospective faculty member. It may be advantageous, then, to describe your dissertation as current research, a current research project, current work, or some other phrase that demonstrates you are aware that your dissertation is the beginning of a larger scholarly career.

Too much jargon. While you may be writing to a specific department, people on the search committee might be unfamiliar with the details of your subfield. In fact, many committees have at least one member from outside their department. Use terminology that can easily be understood by non-experts. If you want to use a specific term that is crucial to your research, then you should define it. Aim for clarity for your reader, which may mean simplification in lieu of complete precision.

Overselling yourself. While your job letter should sell you as a great candidate, saying so (e.g., “I’m the ideal candidate”) in your letter may come off to some search committee members as presumptuous. Remember that although you have an idea about the type of colleague a department is searching for, ultimately you do not know exactly what they want. Try to avoid phrases or sentences where you state you are the ideal or the only candidate right for the position.

Paying too much attention to the job description. Job descriptions are the result of a lot of debate and compromise. If you have skills or research interests outside the job description, consider including them in your letter. It may be that your extra research interests; your outside skills; and/or your extracurricular involvements make you an attractive candidate. For example, if you are a Latin Americanist who also happens to be well-versed in the Spanish Revolution, it could be worth mentioning the expanse of your research interests because a department might find you could fill in other gaps in the curriculum or add an additional or complementary perspective to the department.

Improper sendoff. The closing of your letter is just as important as the beginning. The end of the letter should reflect the professionalism of the document. There should be a thank-you and the word sincerely or a formal equivalent. Remember, it is the very last place in your letter where you present yourself as a capable future colleague.

Small oversights. Make sure to proofread your letter not just for grammar but also for content. For example, if you use material from another letter, make sure you do not include the names of another school, department, or unassociated faculty! Or, if the school is in Chicago, make sure you do not accidentally reference it as located in the Twin Cities.

Name dropping. You rarely know the internal politics of the department or institution to which you are applying. So be cautious about the names you insert in your cover letters. You do not want to unintentionally insert yourself into a departmental squabble or add fire to an interdepartmental conflict. Instead, focus on the actions you will undertake and the initiatives you are passionate about.
