Recruiters receive scores of resumes every week from folks looking for a job within the company. Most (all should) have a cover letter attached. A good cover letter is short, concise, and lays out exactly what you are looking for and why you are qualified. It should give the recruiter a reason to call you.
The cover letter, usually read first, is your chance to stand out from the crowd when entering a hiring manager's or recruiter's stack of resumes.

Based on years of experience, we follow some key basic rules that would make your cover letter attractive.
