It is almost impossible to write the “perfect” cover letter for a mental health technician position until you write and edit it at least a few times.
Cover letter writing is a tricky thing and cannot be done without dedication.
When you read and re-read the cover letter that you have initially written, you will see that there will be a lot to add – and take out. That is an advantage.
