I am quite sure you must have spent several hours making the resume while paying no attention to the cover letter. This does not work. You cannot expect an employer to get back to you if your cover letter is bad. This is because employers receive a lot of resumes and they do no have the time to check each and every resume. Hence they open those resumes which have a catchy cover letter. If your cover letter is pathetic the employer will definitely not open your resume. Hence you lose the chance of getting a good job.

They should be tempted to see your resume reading the cover letter. The secret behind getting an interview call is a great cover letter. Resume is also necessary but it is the cover letter that is the first step, so do not compromise on that.

If you want job offers to pour in all you need is a humble and neat cover letter along with your resume.
