How to structure it
Opening
Name the role and, in one line, the strongest reason you're a fit. Skip the throat-clearing.
Middle
One or two paragraphs of real, specific evidence: what you did, and the result. This is where most letters go generic. Yours shouldn't.
Why this employer
One genuine, specific reason you want this job at this company, not any company. Vague enthusiasm reads as a template that wasn't customised.
Close
Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.
Re: Application for Aromatherapist
I am applying for the Aromatherapist role at [Company Name]. With a calm, client focused approach and hands on experience blending essential oils for massage and topical treatments, I can support your clients' relaxation, stress relief and skin care goals.
In my current practice, I consult each client on health history and treatment goals before choosing oils. One client came in with persistent shoulder tension and poor sleep. I blended lavender, sweet orange and a low dilution of black pepper in a carrier oil, performed a full body aromatherapy massage and sent her home with an inhalation blend. She rebooked within a fortnight and said she was sleeping through the night for the first time in months. I also keep detailed treatment records and track oil stock, so nothing runs out mid week.
I am drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I want to work somewhere that treats aromatherapy as part of a broader wellbeing plan, not just an add on.
Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I would welcome the chance to talk through how I blend safe, effective treatments for your clients.
Getting it right
- Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
- Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
- Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
- Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
