What words/phrases shouldI use in mycover letter?

When it comes to wording, don’t repeat what you’ve put in your resume. Stick to the keywords the job requires (the same ones you used in your resume) but don’t forget to come up with new effective action verbs. as possible. Recruiters don’t like reading long bodies of text so structure it into separate paragraphs.

As a general rule, your cover letter should convey your enthu-siasm and passion for the job. Use words that exude positive energy. Great words and phrases to use are:

Enthusiastic

skilled in

positive

passionate about

high-level

inspired by

efficient

excited about

Experienced in

Optimistic
