I think everyone has heard or been part of a “What is an example of a good cover letter” before and unless your a recruiter or something it may not be completely obvious.

Today was i was going along my daily routine looking at some blogs i stumbled upon this article at smashingmagazine.com about writing a good cover letter. This article is of particular interest because it has feedback directly from companies that advertise on major web oriented job sites like krop.com,

It definitely covers a wide range of topics from structure, to formality and how to address a potential employer in your cover letter. There are also plenty of good examples to look over and you can skim through. The best thing about the examples is that they are geared to a more “web specific” job range like web developers and web designers, but to be quite honest a lot of the advice can go for virtually any field.

It is really worth taking a look if you are a designer or developer whis about to apply for a job and needs an idea of what a good cover letter should look like.
