Cover Letter Fax Guidelines
By Mario Churchill
With the advent of the internet many of the rules changed when applying for a job. While it used to
be common to mail or fax your cover letter and resume, now the preferred method is email, or through
an online job service such as HotJobs of http://Monster.com.
There are still times when a company will accept paper resumes and cover letters. When this option is
available, consider faxing the information. Although email is still the quickest and most convenient
route, it also makes it very easy to quickly delete the information. Faxing the information will put a
tangible item in their hand, and that might be what it takes to get your cover letter read. Here are some
guidelines that will make your fax cover letter stand out.
Format
Like any cover letter, your fax cover letter needs to be properly formatted. It should also be free of any
spelling or grammar mistakes. Most word processing programs come with spelling and grammar
checking functions. It is well worth your time and effort to learn to use them. After you've run the spell
and grammar checks on your cover letter, re-read it to pick up on ay mistakes the program might have
missed.
Your cover letter should be clear and to the point. While you want to be able to sell yourself with the
letter, you can't waste too much time getting it done. Your cover letter should be no more than one
page in length. Job ads will often get a lot of responses. If it takes too long to read your cover letter the
hiring manager will move on to the next letter.
