Included in every package
Cover Letter Writing
A good cover letter is short, specific and about the employer. Yours is included in every package and written to match your CV and target role.
In short
A cover letter should fit on one page, name the role, explain in two or three short paragraphs why you fit and what you'd bring, and close with a clear next step. Every PenworthCV package includes one, written by the same writer as your CV.
About them, not you
Opens with why this role and this organisation, then proves the fit with two or three results.
Your voice
Written from your questionnaire, so it sounds like a sharper version of you, not a template.
Easy to adapt
Built in sections you can tailor in five minutes for each application.
Follow-up emails too
Every package adds follow-up emails and a cold email to recruiters, so you're never staring at a blank screen.
