A Summary of Qualifications is used to briefly explain why the job applicant is qualified to work for a potential employer. A summary of qualifications can be included as part of a resume, or reside within the cover letter. The summary of qualification is telling the hiring company, or recruiter, why the job applicant is qualified for a job and deserves an interview for the position.
Since the summary of qualifications is telling the company how their previous work experience prepared them for a particular job opening, it should be aligned with each type of job, or position, sought.
The following is an example of a summary of qualifications statement, which might be included in a cover letter:
