Many people now hire resume writers, so even a professionally written resume usually looks average. I have helped thousands of people secure interviews in the most crowded job markets, and I'm especially qualified to make your resume stand out: 1. I have written resumes for people from C-level executives to new graduates. As a seasoned resume writer, I'm an expert in this field’s current practices. 2. I have also been a recruiter, so I know how hiring managers select a resume from hundreds of others, and I understand the full hiring process. 3. I’m up to date with applicant-tracking software (ATS) systems. More than 90% of resumes sent for a typical opening won’t be seen by human eyes because ATS systems first screen them. They require effective use of keywords and certain types of formatting. There are more than 200 ATS systems and they change quickly. 4. I have been a voracious reader for 30 years (with a 10,000-volume home library). Reading intensively on a daily basis has made me a more astute critic than writers who read less are--I can notice more of a resume's shortcomings. I can also see more nuances in a resume's language and understand how they will affect the hiring manager's impressions. 5. I have traveled extensively in China, Southeast Asia, India, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. I studied and wrote about their cultures in 2 books and over 200 articles. Extra creativity and the ability to look at people and their resumes in novel ways, with a larger range of ideas, make a big difference now that resume writing has become more competitive. I will be able to see all of your strengths in more ways than other resume writers will, and my versatility as a writer will allow me to give them more impact. I'll be happy to give your resume a free critique and tell you what I can do to improve it. This is the best way to test a resume writer because it allows you to see his ability to evaluate a resume and think of ways to distinguish you. It also enables you to see his knowledge of the job market, which has recently undergone several profound changes. I have also learned how to craft resumes in ways that can influence the interview in your favor, and I can provide interview coaching. I also write cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, webpages, personal bios, and articles. As a resume writer and an explorer of world cultures, I focus on discovering the richness in people, and I've found that each person is unique and infinitely deep. I love to find more wonders in people and societies and write about them. I look forward to giving you a great new resume and many ideas about taking the next step in your career.

Cover Letter Writers Hiring FAQs

What is a cover letter writer?

Because the opportunity to impress a potential client, admissions dean or financial contributor is a first time to make a lasting impression, a cover letter writer is a valuable resource to have at your disposal. Rather than leave your first impression to chance, hiring a cover letter writer can be the difference between a new hire or the latest rejection.

How do you hire a cover letter writer?

You can source cover letter writer talent on Upwork by following these three steps:

  • Write a project description. You’ll want to determine your scope of work and the skills and requirements you are looking for in a cover letter writer.
  • Post it on Upwork. Once you’ve written a project description, post it to Upwork. Simply follow the prompts to help you input the information you collected to scope out your project.
  • Shortlist and interview cover letter writers. Once the proposals start coming in, create a shortlist of the professionals you want to interview. 

Of these three steps, your project description is where you will determine your scope of work and the specific type of cover letter writer you need to complete your project. 

How much does it cost to hire a cover letter writer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced cover letter writer may command higher fees but also work faster, have more-specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their cover letter writing services more competitively. 

Rates typically charged by cover letter writers on Upwork are:

  • Beginner: $30 per hour
  • Intermediate: $62 per hour
  • Advanced: $125 per hour

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project. 

How do you write a cover letter writer job post?

Your job post is your chance to describe your project scope, budget, and talent needs. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project.

Job post title

Create a simple title that describes exactly what you’re looking for. The idea is to target the keywords that your ideal candidate is likely to type into a job search bar to find your project. Here are some sample cover letter writer job post titles:

  • We are hiring cover letter and resume writers
  • Need cover letter, LinkedIn and resume writing help
  • Looking for writing coach to help me with cover letters
  • Need an email cover letter writer to help improve open rates

Project description

An effective cover letter writer job post should include: 

  • Scope of work: From finding the right tone to requesting an appointment, list all the deliverables you’ll need. 
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project. 
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, styles, or platforms, mention this here. 
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

Cover letter writer job responsibilities

Here are some examples of cover letter writer job responsibilities:

  • Update and improve all of my cover letters
  • Review all client cover letters and implement changes wherever needed
  • Write in an engaging tone that leads the reader to call

Cover letter writer job requirements and qualifications

Be sure to include any requirements and qualifications you’re looking for in a cover letter writer. Here are some examples:

  • Ability to successfully translate what’s in the resume to an introduction letter
  • Track record of high open and click through rates
  • Experience configuring creative and written content portfolios
