Important Tips:
* Make sure that each cover letter you send on oDesk, is personalize
and specific, to each job, that you are applying for.
* Never copy and paste your cover letters contents, as every project
is different, and needs, to be tailored, to it’s own requirements.
* Never Provide Email ID / Skype ID or any other Contact Info (This is
Against oDesk Policy)
* Keep your cover letter short in length; four short paragraphs, are
more than enough to get your message across.
* Avoid boring them to death with an essay, this will turn them off,
from hiring you.
* Every single line in your oDesk cover letter should be written in a
way, that will provide the employer an incentive to hire you.
* Show a high level of enthusiasm that you are accessible, prepared,
and ready, to start working with them.
