Entry-Level Investigator Cover Letter Writing Tips
• Do not write in a dull manner.
• Keep your letter short and to the point: do not make it sound like an essay.

• Construct your cover letter professionally: distribute it in 3 to 4 paragraphs.
• Do not forget to sign your letter in ink.

Dear Mr. Lee:
I am writing to submit my application for the position of Jr. Security Investigator at the Florida Special Investigation Unit. After graduating from Northeastern University School of Law (Boston) in June, I am planning to relocate to Miami, and therefore I find this job opening very suitable and align well with my knowledge and strengths. My resume with three references and legal certifications is enclosed with this application.
The reason why I am primarily attracted to your ‘Special Investigation Unit’ is your well-established and respected reputation in the industry of formal investigation which I became familiar with after attending several seminars about the application of the law and legal investigations conducted by the King County Boston at our university. GEICO, therefore, seems to be the best place for me to launch my career while delivering my relevant skills and capabilities.
My summer internship at the SAS Institute Inc. has refined my academic knowledge and has equipped me with the essential skills required for this position. There, I have developed expertise in assisting the senior investigators at work in investigating all aspects of insurance fraud such as insurance claims and policy fraud issues.
My hands-on experience with analytic and business approaches related to fraud detection and technical/business approaches to data integration within and across government agencies gives me an edge. I am very quick and diplomatically capable of establishing strong contacts and networks with local state and federal law enforcement agencies and personnel which will be an added benefit for your firm.
I would be delighted to speak with committee members of GEICO and meet with you for an interview. I have enclosed all necessary documents and looking forward to a positive response. To set up a meeting date and time, I will call your secretary next week. If you need any additional information, please feel free to call me at (000) 123-1234.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Candice Holley
