Part 4b: How Long Should The Cover Letter Be?

Jobs : Successful Job Search CV Covering Letter And Exams

How long should my covering letter be? The covering letter is exactly that - simply a cover.

Therefore it is very rare that it should be longer than a page, unless specifically requested.

Usually companies are looking for your ability to summarise the key points of your application briefly and concisely, a useful skill indeed.

Hence the text should not be more than 2/3 of a page, and hence with the signature and address at the top, the letter will fill one side of A4.
