Write a cover letter matched to one job

Recruiters skim for evidence that you can do this job. You will paste the key requirements, map each to a real example from your life, and produce a 250–400 word letter that a checker tests for job-title match, evidence and length.

⏱ 10–20 min · Works with or without AI · No signup

You will practise

  • Mapping job requirements to your evidence
  • Writing achievement sentences (action + result)
  • Keeping a letter specific and under one page

No AI key needed. The guided template works for everyone.

  1. 1Brief

    Specific answers make better results — with or without AI.

  2. 2Make

    Pick a route. The template gives you a structure with [[blanks]] to fill in yourself. Your own key drafts it for you — then you still check it.

    See the exact prompt — copy it into any AI chat you already use
  3. 3Check
    The same rules run on every draft, human or AI. Most first drafts fail something — that is the point.
      Self-check — judgement no checker can make
    • 4Improve
      Fix one item at a time, then check again. Notice which fixes made it better — that is the skill.
      1. Run the check first.
    • 5Ship
      Use it for real: send it, post it or save it. Record what happened — that is your evidence of learning.

    Questions people ask
    How long should a cover letter be?
    Usually 250–400 words — under one page. Recruiters often skim in under a minute.
    Can I reuse one cover letter?
    Reuse the structure, not the letter. Matching evidence to each ad is what makes it work.
    Do I need an AI key to use this?
    No. The guided template teaches the same skill with no AI at all. If you add your own free key (Groq, Google Gemini, OpenRouter, Mistral or Cerebras), the tool can also draft and revise. The key stays in your browser and requests go straight to that provider.
    Where is my work saved?
    In this browser only (local storage), until you copy or download it. Nothing you type is sent to Open Practice.
