Australian Cover Letter Best Practices
Ideal Structure (4 Paragraphs)
Keywords & Evidence

- • Include numbers and outcomes where possible
- • Write out acronyms once: "CRM (Customer Relationship Management)"
Formatting for ATS
- • Use standard fonts (Arial/Calibri 11-12pt)
- • Save as PDF unless .docx requested

- • Keep layout simple (no tables/graphics)
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- • Generic opening lines ("I am writing to apply...")

- • Including salary unless specifically asked
- • Photos or personal details (DOB, marital status)
- • Exceeding one page unless requested
Industry variations: Tech roles often prefer shorter letters (200-300 words) with portfolio links. Mining/resources emphasise safety records and certifications. Healthcare requires AHPRA registration details. Financial services value regulatory knowledge and quantified outcomes.
