In the pack: ChatGPT, Claude & Gemini Prompts for Resumes, Cover Letters & Job Search
Graduate or Entry-Level Cover Letter With Little Experience
Prompt
Job ad or graduate scheme description: {{JOB_AD}}
My education, projects, part-time work and activities: {{MY_EXPERIENCE}}
Why this employer and this role, in my own words: {{MY_MOTIVATION}}
Write a cover letter of 250-320 words:
1. Opening: the role, and one concrete reason I'm a good fit, drawn from a project, job or activity.
2. Evidence paragraph: two examples from my experience that map to the skills the ad lists (for example teamwork, analysis, customer handling), each with what I did and what happened.
3. Motivation paragraph: specific to this employer, using only what I've told you or what's in the ad.
4. Close: availability, and a simple confident ending.
Rules: don't oversell part-time jobs or student roles, don't claim experience I don't have, and avoid "I am a hard-working and passionate graduate". If the ad lists a requirement I don't meet, mention what I'm doing about it in one sentence or leave it out; never pretend.
After the letter, suggest one thing I could do this week to strengthen my application to this employer.
