You may already have one sample cover letter but it is a good idea to put together a few different cover letters samples. When you have more than one sample to choose from it is easier to apply for job openings quickly. This is because you can write samples for a number of different types of jobs. It will still be a good idea to review and tailor the cover letter before each application.

When you have more than one sample to choose from it is easier to apply for job openings quickly. This is because you can write samples for a number of different types of jobs. It will still be a good idea to review and tailor the cover letter before each application. You can do this much faster when you have samples for a few different situations though. You will still have to tweak each sample at least slightly before you apply for a job. However, you will have to do much less tweaking if you have a number of different samples representing a few different scenarios. The first sample you create should be one for a job similar to your current job and this sample should demonstrate your duties and responsibilities. This sample should really make it clear that you are well qualified for your current position. One thing you do not want to do is describe duties you are performing which should be done by your subordinates. Cover letters samples for higher ranking positions are a little bit harder to write but they should demonstrate how you are currently performing above your current job level and the skills you have which are not being utilized properly. This sample should also make it obvious that you are eager for more responsibility in your career. In conclusion, do not neglect to write a sample for a position which is below your current level. Ideally you will always be moving up in your career but sometimes a downward move may be necessary. In some cases another employer may pay more for lower positions than your current company pays for your current position or you may be facing downsizing and be willing to take a job with less responsibility.
