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.

Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.
Re: Application for Telecommunications Cable Jointer
I am writing to apply for the Telecommunications Cable Jointer role at [Company Name]. With a Certificate III in Telecommunications Technology and hands-on experience splicing copper and fibre optic cables in pits, on poles and at customer premises, I can step into your crew and start completing joints to specification from day one.
During a fibre-to-the-premises rollout, I fusion spliced and tested hundreds of lead-ins, often working in live pits alongside civil crews. On one job, a street kept losing broadband on a shared copper pair. I used an OTDR and multimeter to trace the fault, found a moisture-damaged joint that had been missed, and re-sealed it. That stopped repeat callouts to the same street for the rest of the build and kept the customer connection stable.
I want to work for [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I am looking for an employer that values first-time-right work and safe network access, and I am ready to contribute to your maintenance and build programs across the network.
Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my resume, which outlines my tickets, tools and experience in more detail, and I would welcome the chance to discuss how I can support your team.
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.
