Does anyone know of a place where I could get templates for new grad RN cover letters? I like the way my resume looks but I can't seem to feel comfortable enough with my cover letter to send it. I want to apply asap, since I am due to graduate in early December. Can someone help me with this? Thanks in advance :) *Jessica*

hey, i just graduated in may and to tell you the truth i've never even seen a cover letter. my instructors at school told me all i needed was a resume. ask your instructors what they say and if they think you need one see if they will help you write one.:)

Dear XXX,
I am writing to inquire for a possible employment as a Licensed Vocational Nurse in your facility. I graduated last April in XXX and just passed my NCLEX last August.
I believe I would make a positive addition to your nursing staff. Though I don't have experience working in a nursing field before, working as a hotel concierge for the past 2 years, I have learned to adapt quickly, make quick decisions, anticipate the needs of our guests and provide a good customer service. Aside from that I am a quick learner and a very hardworking person.
Thank you for taking time to review my resume. I am looking forward to meeting you soon to discuss possible employment. I will be avalable for an interview at your convenience and may be reach at XXX-XXXXXX. I look forward hearing from you.
Sincerely,
XXX
Please if anyone can suggest to make it better, please post it asap.. thanks;-)
