Cover Letter for Accountants
Recruitment is a lengthy process and you need to keep in touch with the recruiter/employer through the entire process. There are several professional letters that you can send to the recruiter to let them know that you are interested in the job opening. An acknowledging job offer letter is written to let the employer know that you are still interested in the job opening and will reply back within the stipulated time given to you. Use professional language to draft this letter, make sure that letter does not indicate anything negative. It is important to keep in touch with the employer, so that the employer does not feel that you are not interested in the job offer provided to you.

Use the sample acknowledging job offer letter provided above for reference. Avoid mentioning details about job offers from other companies. Candidates, who have received multiple offers from different companies and are trying to choose the best option, should never provide the details of other job offers. It is important to create the right impression on the employer. Because even if you do not join the company, positive impression will help you keep new avenues open for future career endeavors.
As you are applying for job in financial firm, you are expected to send an error-free neat cover letter. Hence, it is essential to proof read the cover letter, before sending it along with the resume. Get rid of all the spelling, typing and grammar mistakes. When you are sending the cover letter, use an envelope that has the employers address printed over it. Sending cover letter in an envelope with hand written address should be avoided.
