A cover letter is as important as your resume these days. It helps you to showcase your skills and experience in the best manner so that you get short listed for an interview. A retail cashier cover letter should show the recruiter that you can handle the responsibilities of retail cashier. Unlike a resume, the cover letter can have a conversational tone and can be tailored according to the requirements and expectation of the organization.
