A Heading on a resume cover letter is used to grab the attention of the recruiter or potential employer. The heading should provide the reader with a two to five word description of your background or area of expertise. The heading you chose can be used optionally on either the cover letter and / or resume itself.
The heading should appear on the same line as your name and attempt to define who you are from a career perspective. For example, if you have worked in the area of budgeting or finance, your heading might be something like:
Below is an example of a format that can be used for a heading statement appearing at the top of a resume cover letter or the resume itself:
JOHN SMITH Financial Planning Manager / Finance Executive
12 Main Street, Your City, NY 10001 (XXX) XXX-XXXX
