Volunteer Firefighter Cover Letter

Every resume sent to the employer is accompanied by a cover letter to give an idea to the employer what you have to offer his organization. A cover letter is generally a short note consisting of two to three paragraphs highlighting your credentials from the employer's perspective. Your volunteer firefighter cover letter should also include your contact details and the details of the employers such as the name of the recruiter, his designation, company address, etc. Including the name of the reference if you have any is also important.
