		<description><![CDATA[In past articles, we&#8217;ve discussed the basic structure of a cover letter. In this article, we&#8217;ll walk you through turning your basic cover letter into an impressive cover letter.
Your resume outlines your career, skills, and experience. It is the most common means of advertising to potential employers.
