Hi friends,I have a hard time writing cover letters. It's hard for me to quantify what I've done to show what value I can offer an employer. Would anyone be able to offer support on my cover letter? I've finalized what I have but nervous that what I have isn't good enough. There's a job posting on Front End Developer I've come across and I want to make sure I make the mark.Thank you

Hi @ChristineTran, I'm happy to take a quick look! Before you send it, I'd make sure you're answering two questions. First, why are you interested in the company? And second, how will your skills help the company? The second part should be more of a little narrative from your career as opposed to just relisting your responsibilities.When you're ready, you can find my email here: www.megduffy.com/contact
