Write Your Graduate Cover Letter With Confidence

The graduate cover letter below is there to give you some ideas of how best to express yourself and make the most of what you've learned.

Most graduates won’t find the perfect job straight after graduation. There is sometimes a need for a period of adjustment and more often than not, that is when you will really begin your student job search.

You should use this period of transition to try out different jobs - you may have developed some useful skills on campus or in societies.

Take some time to find out what there is out there and don't rush straight into the first job that comes along.

Before writing you first 'graduate cover letter', consider what you really need and what you want from work so that you can begin to build a solid foundation for your career.

Dear Mr. Court

Insurance Telesales Operator

Having an outgoing personality, plus a total of 4 months successful vacation sales experience, and my recently completed degree, I am confident of being a strong candidate for a position of an Insurance Telesales Operator for Yorkshire Investments Limited.

I have recently graduated from the University of Leicester with a degree in English & Marketing, where I was president of both the Business Leaders of Tomorrow group and the University Marketing Society.

Although a recent graduate, I do not consider myself typical. I attended college in Cheshire and in Manchester and I supported myself by working at jobs in local radio advertising sales, magazine subscription sales, and barkeeping work. All of these jobs have enhanced my interpersonal and sales skills and rounded out my formal education.

In each case my employers were delighted with my skill and abilty to engage the client and make successful and sustained sales.

I believe I have the maturity, skills, and abilities to establish a career in insurance sales with Yorkshire Investments, and living close to home in Yorkshire would be a real added bonus.

I will be available to attend interview any time this month, and I'd really welcome the opportunity of discussing this position with you. If I may, I will follow up this letter with a brief phone call to see if we can arrange a time to meet.

Yours Sincerely,

Michelle Barnes
