Career Change Cover Letter

If you are changing careers or returning to work after raising children, use your cover letter to discuss your transferable skills. Transferable skills are those skills that you have acquired through previous experience that relate to the new job. Negotiation, time and money management, computer skills and leadership skills are all transferable among a broad range of professions.
