How do I address a cover letter to a recruitment agency?

Here’s how you address a cover letter to a recruitment agency:

• if you have a contact’s name: Dear [Mr/Ms/Mx][Contact’s Surname],
• if you don’t have a contact’s name: Dear Recruiter,

Whenever possible, use a contact’s name to make your cover letter more personable. You should be able to find a person to address your cover letter to by searching the agency’s website. But if not, contact the agency and ask who to address your cover letter to.
