Three short paragraphs: why this job, why you, and a clear close. Tailor it to each advert.
Time needed: 30 minutes
Keep it to one page
Opening: the job title (and reference number if the advert has one) and why this employer interests you.
Why you: two or three examples from your experience that match what the advert asks for. Be specific.
Close: say you would welcome an interview, and give your phone number.
Tips
Address it to a named person if the advert gives one.
Don't repeat your whole CV; pick the strongest evidence.
Check spelling and the company's name carefully. Mistakes here get applications rejected.
Processes and fees change from time to time. Always follow the instructions on the official website, and never pay anyone who offers to "speed up" a clearance for you.
