How to structure it
Opening
Name the role and, in one line, the strongest reason you're a fit. Skip the throat-clearing.
Middle
One or two paragraphs of real, specific evidence: what you did, and the result. This is where most letters go generic. Yours shouldn't.
Why this employer
One genuine, specific reason you want this job at this company, not any company. Vague enthusiasm reads as a template that wasn't customised.
Close
Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.
Re: Application for Aquaculture Worker
I am writing to apply for the Aquaculture Worker position at [Company Name]. With practical experience in fish and shellfish farming and a strong commitment to water quality and animal welfare, I am confident I can contribute to your operations.
In my previous role, I was responsible for feeding and monitoring stock across several tanks. I noticed that dissolved oxygen levels were fluctuating, so I adjusted the aeration schedule and tested water more frequently. This reduced stress-related mortalities and helped maintain steady growth rates. I also cleaned and maintained nets and cages, which prevented biofouling and kept equipment in good working order.
I am particularly drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I share your focus on sustainable practices and would welcome the chance to contribute to your team.
Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my skills align with your needs.
Getting it right
- Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
- Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
- Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
- Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
