Dear Mr Jackson
Cover letter
sample
I am very interested in the Alcohol and Drug Counselor position posted in the Los Angeles
Times. Having graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles as a Sociology
major and a Counseling minor, I believe I have the appropriate preparation and training
for the responsibilities that this job entails. (Must specifically address the position desired
as well as the website or publication of the job advertisement.)
I have always had the will to change the world. I have witnessed many people suffer and
struggle over life experiences, which led me to want to pursue a career in social work.
Upon graduating from UCLA, I landed a job at the school’s counseling center. There I led
programs and seminars to students regarding alcohol and drug abuse. (You can give some
background as to how your interest in social work developed. Also introduce your past
experience doing Social Work.)
I would like to broaden my range of patients. I sincerely want to be able to help not only
students in school facing these issues, but everyone who is affected. Because of my
exposure to such a disease, since my father passed away from alcoholism, I am well aware
of its detrimental effects and it is my goal to give all those who are addicted, the help that
they so desperately need. (Explain why you believe you are the best candidate for this
position. It may help to state a goal that you have in mind once taking on this position.)
I believe I am a suitable candidate given my experience as well as the determination to
accomplish better ends for them. I would like the opportunity to meet with you. If you
have any further questions, please feel free to contact me by phone at (555) 555-5555 or
by email at kjones@betterends.com. (Give contact information.)
Thank you for your consideration. My resume is attached. I look forward to speaking with
you.
Yours sincerely
Mark Dixon

I am currently working as a social worker for Birmingham City Council and have over two

with vulnerable people in difficult circumstances. I would also like to point out that I have
experience of working irregular hours at a hospice, including evenings, nights and
weekends.
I feel that my greatest professional ability is to meet each of my client’s unique needs by
gaining a in-depth understanding of their circumstances, problems and requirements.
With this cover letter please find enclosed my current CV. I hope that you will consider my
