Highlighting Acts of Integrity on Your Cover Letter to Help Seal the Deal
Tempe, AZ - September 21, 2022
Amid your
job search in Tempe
, employers are looking for more than just the hard skills required to do the job. They also want to see soft skills like willingness to learn and being a good fit for the company culture.
One way to show employers that you have these qualities is through your cover letter. In addition, a well-written cover letter can give employers a glimpse into your character and work ethic. But, first, here are some questions you should ask yourself to figure out the best way to highlight acts of integrity.
How have I proven myself to be trustworthy?
What are my skill sets, and how do I prove I'm knowledgeable about this position and industry?
Do I have a value statement that aligns with the company I'm applying to?
Trustworthy
Include a brief story of when you were trusted to take care of related tasks-state how you handled the request and your pride in completing the project. If you have specific measurements for the project's success, include those or provide a quote from a note you received thanking you for your hard work on the project.
Knowledge-Set
You could quote an article related to your industry or training you've done in the past that's relevant to the job at hand. Then, briefly cover what you do to stay on top of new industry trends.
Value Statement
If you have your values or mission statement, share that. Then explain why the job or company aligns with that. "The Leadership Challenge," by James P. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner, offers excellent advice on creating a personal values statement and a guide on using that in decision-making.
