How people ask for it

5 examples written by Taskly from what people search for in Canada. Real tasks look like these.

  • “Cover letter for an administrative assistant role in health care”

    I need a cover letter for administrative assistant roles at Alberta Health Services and clinics in Edmonton. I've worked six years as a front desk and office coordinator at a dental clinic: booking, insurance claims, recall lists and supply ordering. I'm applying to unit clerk and admin assistant postings at hospitals and clinics.

    My draft letter is generic and doesn't mention medical terminology, scheduling systems or my accuracy with claims. Please edit it into a tight one-page letter I can adapt per posting, in Canadian spelling. Tracked changes and a short note on what to customize each time is all I need.

    C$70
    • Edited one-page cover letter
    • Notes on what to customize per posting
    • One revision round

    For: Dental office coordinator in Edmonton moving into hospital admin

    Example task, written by Taskly. Yours can be one line; your Tasker will ask what they need.
  • “Fix my cover letter format for Canadian engineering roles”

    I need my cover letter put into a proper Canada-style format before applying to civil engineering roles in Halifax. I moved to Nova Scotia this year with ten years of experience in road and drainage design overseas, and I'm working towards my P.Eng licence. My current letters run two pages, open with my personal details and use phrases that sound formal in a way Canadian employers don't.

    I'd like one strong template letter in the format employers here expect: one page, a clear opening, two short paragraphs on relevant projects, and a closing. I'll send my resume and two postings. Tracked edits plus a template I can reuse is the goal.

    C$90
    • One-page reusable cover letter template
    • Tracked edits on my current letter
    • Notes on Canadian conventions

    For: Newcomer civil engineer in Halifax

    Example task, written by Taskly. Yours can be one line; your Tasker will ask what they need.
  • “Cover letter for internship applications at Canadian banks”

    I need help with a cover letter for internship applications at the big Canadian banks this recruiting season. I'm a third-year commerce student at UBC with a finance concentration, applying to summer analyst programs at RBC, TD, BMO and Scotiabank in Toronto and Vancouver. I've written one draft that tries to cover everything and ends up saying nothing.

    I want a strong base letter I can tailor for each bank in about 15 minutes, built around my investment club role, a part-time job at a credit union and a case competition. Please edit my draft, cut it to one page, and show me which lines to swap per bank.

    C$60
    • One-page base cover letter
    • Swap-in lines for each bank
    • Tracked edits on my draft

    For: Third-year commerce student in Vancouver

    Example task, written by Taskly. Yours can be one line; your Tasker will ask what they need.
  • “Cover letter writing service for an Ontario public service role”

    I'm looking for a cover letter writing service that understands Ontario Public Service applications. I'm a policy analyst with four years at a municipal government in the GTA, and I'm applying to senior policy advisor roles in OPS ministries. The postings list detailed 'What you bring' qualifications, and I've heard the letter needs to show each one clearly. My drafts are long and still miss some of them.

    Please write a cover letter from my resume and notes that addresses every qualification with a short example, then help me reuse the structure for future postings. Tracked edits and a 30-minute call to go through my examples would be ideal.

    C$140
    • Cover letter addressing each listed qualification
    • Reusable structure for future postings
    • 30-minute call

    For: Municipal policy analyst in the GTA applying to provincial roles

    Example task, written by Taskly. Yours can be one line; your Tasker will ask what they need.
  • “First cover letter for an electrician moving into estimating”

    I've never had to write a cover letter for a job application, and now I need one to move from the tools into estimating. I'm a journeyperson electrician in Calgary with 12 years on commercial and institutional projects, the last three as a foreman. I'm applying for junior estimator and project coordinator roles at electrical contractors.

    I can read drawings, do takeoffs and I've helped my PM price change orders, but I don't know how to say that in a letter. I'd like a 30-minute call where you ask me questions, then a one-page letter written from my answers that I can adjust for each company. Plain language please, nothing fancy.

    C$110
    • 30-minute intake call
    • One-page cover letter written from my answers
    • Notes on what to change per company

    For: Calgary electrician moving into estimating

Good questions

What people ask before they post this in Canada.

  • 01

    How much does cover letter cost in Canada?

    Usually C$30–150. Each Tasker names their own price in their offer, so you see the cost before you agree to anything.

  • 02

    Should I mention the systems I've used?

    Yes. Name the scheduling or practice software you know and say how quickly you learn new ones. Health care employers often use different systems, so adaptability matters as much as the name.

  • 03

    How long should an admin assistant cover letter be?

    Under one page: an opening that names the role, one paragraph on relevant experience with an example, one on why that employer, and a short close.

  • 04

    Do Canadian cover letters include personal details?

    No. Leave out age, marital status, photo and nationality. Your name, city, phone and email at the top are enough, followed by the date and the employer's details.

  • 05

    How do I describe overseas engineering projects?

    Give the project type, value or size, your role and the standards or software used, such as Civil 3D. Keep it to two or three projects that match the posting.

  • 06

    How do I tailor one cover letter for several banks?

    Keep the middle paragraphs the same and change the opening and the why-this-bank lines. Mention a specific group, program or recent initiative you read about.

  • 07

    How does paying work?

    Posting is free. When you accept an offer you pay the agreed price. Your money is held by Taskly until you confirm the task is done. If you don’t, it’s released three days after your Tasker marks it finished — unless you report a problem.

  • 08

    Who are the Taskers?

    People who have done what you need: worked at the company, passed the exam, made the move. Every Tasker is reviewed and approved by a person before they work.
