Thats a lot of documents for a recruiter to review and a lot of candidates for you to get through. Thats why absolutely every element of your and cover letter counts including the welcome. Starting your document with Dear Sir or Madam I am writing in response to the job offer will certainly not make a good first impression. As you already know Dear SirMadam can discourage a recruiter so its better to give yourself an advantage from the start and choose a different phrase. Here are examples that will work better in a cover letter than Dear Sir or Madam Dear MsMr addressees name or surname Dear MsMr. addressees surname. Its a phrase that is both personal and official.
So you dont risk either the overly colloquial tone or the soulless anonymity of Dear SirMadam . Of course to use it you neeto know the recipients details. But in the age of LinkedIn finding them shouldnt be a big problem. Dear Dr recipients name Works exactly like the previous phrase only using the recipients academic title. Dear addressees name and surname here we omit safe especially when you DB to Data cannot determine the recipients gender from the name and surname or you know that the company you are applying to has a relaxeatmosphere and friendly work culture.
Dear Hiring Manager Dear HR Manager Dear Recruiter a great alternative to Dear SirMadam which will also work when you do not know the exact personal data of the recipient. Dear recipients position exactly as in the example above you can use this phrase if you are sending documents for example to the manager of the team you would like to work in or the head of the company instead of to a recruiter. Dear Recruitment Team name of another department Team when you address documents to the entire team not a specific person.
