Example output
Dear Northpoint Medical,
I'm applying for the Med-Surg RN position posted last week. I've been a med-surg nurse for seven years, the last four at Memorial in a 32-bed unit, where I'm currently a charge nurse on the day shift.
What I can bring: BLS, ACLS, PALS, telemetry comfort, and pediatric experience from a stint at Children's in 2021. What I'm looking for: a unit that supports preceptors. I've precepted six new grads at Memorial and want to keep doing that work formally.
I'm available to interview on any weekday after 2pm. References from my charge and from one of my preceptees are available on request.
Sincerely,
Alex Whitfield, RN, BSN

Common questions

- How long is it?
- 250-350 words. One screen. That's what recruiters actually read.
