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 Office Equipment Technician
I am writing to apply for the Office Equipment Technician role at [Company Name]. With hands-on experience servicing printers, copiers and multifunction devices, I can diagnose faults, replace worn components and configure networked devices to keep document workflows running smoothly.
In my current role, I look after a fleet of multifunction devices across several sites. I recently resolved a recurring jamming issue on a high-volume copier by identifying a worn separation roller that had been missed during routine servicing. Replacing the roller and resetting the paper feed settings cut repeat callouts for that machine from weekly to once a month, and the customer was able to clear their backlog the same day.
I am drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I want to work somewhere that values thorough diagnostics and clear communication with clients, and I believe my background in scheduled servicing and network configuration would fit well with your team.
Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my resume and would welcome the chance to discuss how I can help keep your customers' equipment running smoothly.
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.
