Who is this template for?
For applicants in print and digital journalism, opinion-led publishing, policy think tanks, long-form podcasting and academic press. Reporters, editors, columnists, researchers and policy analysts — not for visually-led design roles or any sector that expects a more decorative grammar.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I personalise this cover letter?
Our in-browser editor walks you through each section (introduction, experience, motivation, closing). You can also let our Studio Agentic draft the full letter based on a job ad in seconds.
How long should my cover letter be?
One page, three paragraphs — that's what recruiters read. Every template on the platform is pre-calibrated for that length so you don't have to worry about overflow or gaps.
Should my letter match my CV design?
Visual consistency strengthens your personal brand. Each letter style pairs naturally with a matching CV style — for example, a Professional letter with a Professional CV.
What export formats are supported?
PDF (print-ready) and DOCX (fully editable in Word or Google Docs). Both preserve the design pixel-perfect.
Can I use this template for multiple job applications?
Absolutely — duplicate it, tweak the opening and motivation paragraphs per company, and you're done. Most candidates keep 2-3 letter variants on file for different industries.
