Cover letters

Tailor a cover letter to a job posting

Paste the posting and see which of your skills it mentions.

Updated October 8, 2026

  1. In the cover letter editor, open “Job and recipient” and paste the job posting.
  2. Open the Check tab. Under Job posting you see skills from your resume that also appear in the posting.
  3. Green means the skill is already in your letter. Amber means it is not yet.
  4. Use Writing help to change focus skills, tone or length, then “Redraft with these settings”. You can undo a redraft.

This is a comparison of words, not a score. It shows what to mention; it does not predict whether you will be invited to an interview.
