Directly addressing your cover letter to recruiters is generally not recommended unless requested, as they may not be the decision-makers for the position you're applying for. Focus instead on addressing it to either the hiring manager or the relevant team that is directly involved with the role.
Address the cover letter to the hiring manager. If you can't find their name, then address them as “Hiring Manager,” by their title or address the department. Write a cover letter introduction that immediately grabs the hiring manager's attention and compels them to keep reading.
Address the hiring manager If you are sending the letter of application as an email attachment you do not need the recipient's contact information. If you send it by post, be sure to include: the hiring manager's name.
It's always acceptable to use “Dear Hiring Manager,” but there are also other options, such as: Dear Finance Department. Dear Company ABC Team. Dear Customer Service Manager. Dear Company XYZ Recruiter. To the Marketing Department. Dear Head of Design.
The title of the hiring manager will occasionally be posted within a job description. If it is, this is who you can address your cover letter to. If the job description does not include hiring manager information, we would suggest addressing the cover letter as "To Whom It May Concern".
Introduction. Introduce yourself and explain how you found the advertised job. You can mention the job title, and reference number if there is one. If you're asking about any job openings and not applying to a vacancy, tell them what sort of job you're looking for.
