How do you use a cover letter example without sounding like a template?
Pick the page for your exact job, read both letters — one for experienced candidates, one for people breaking in — and copy the structure: a specific opening that names the role, one or two results that prove you can do it, and a short close that asks for the interview. Then replace every example detail with your own. Each page also has five writing rules for that job and answers to the questions hiring managers hear most. If the job type changes the argument you need to make, see cover letter examples by job type; if the industry changes the tone, see cover letter examples by industry.
