Sample letter
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am applying for the Graphic Designer role at [Company]. Over four years of agency work I have designed for FMCG and telecom brands — including a national beverage launch whose campaign creative ran across OOH, TV supers, and digital for an audience of over ten million.
I work systematically: mood-board alignment before design, structured file handoff after it. That process cut revision rounds on my accounts from five to two, which clients noticed as much as the creative itself. My toolkit covers the full Adobe suite and Figma, from key visual concepts to production-ready adaptations.
My portfolio (linked on my resume) shows the range — brand identity, campaign systems, and social creative — and I would be glad to walk through the thinking behind any piece.
Thank you for your time. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to [Company]'s creative output.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]

Why this letter works
- It opens with a credential, not a request. The first paragraph names the role and immediately gives the strongest quantified reason to keep reading.
- Every claim carries a number. Achievements are stated as results — the same rule that makes resume bullets work.
- It connects to the company. The [Company] placeholders force personalisation — the single biggest difference between letters that get read and letters that get filtered.
- It closes with confidence. A direct, polite ask for the interview — no pleading, no over-formality.

Frequently asked questions
How long should a graphic designer cover letter be?+
One page maximum — three to four paragraphs, 250–350 words. Pakistani recruiters skim cover letters in under a minute; density beats length.
Should I send a cover letter if the job ad doesn't ask for one?+
For email applications, put a shortened version (2 paragraphs) in the email body itself — that email is your cover letter. Attach the full letter only when requested.
Can I reuse the same cover letter for every application?+
Reuse the skeleton, but change the company name, the role title, and at least one sentence explaining why this specific company — recruiters spot mass-mailed letters instantly, and they filter them out.
