Are you a scrum master looking for an example of a resume and cover letter? Scrum masters must pair highly technical training with organizational and communication skills, and you'll want your job-seeking materials to stress your specific qualifications.
Take the time to match your qualifications to the job description, then use your cover letter to show the employer why you're a strong candidate for the job. Be specific about how your qualifications can help the company succeed.
Here's an example of a cover letter for a scrum master position, as well as a scrum master resume example, further down.

Dear Mrs. Lee,
This letter is to express my interest in your posting on Dice.com for an experienced, results-oriented, highly-organized Scrum Master. With a Bachelor’s degree in computer science and several years of experience leading high-profile, high-pressure software releases, I have the experience, skills, and results-driven attitude to succeed in this role at your organization.
This year, I ran a successful software release on a shoestring budget. With fewer than six developers, I was able to deliver a polished final product on time and within the predetermined budget of $30,000. Through daily meetings, detailed project timelines, and the removal of project roadblocks, I assisted in the release of a product that received positive media and industry reviews.
Throughout my career, I’ve become an expert on the Agile framework for project management and the Scrum evangelist for each company I’ve worked for. I value my role in an organization and aspire to help others interested in becoming a Scrum Master. I am active in various professional organizations and continuously look for software and methods to improve the Scrum process.
I’ve attached a copy of my resume that details my experience. I can be reached anytime via my cell phone, 555-555-5555, or via email at [email protected]. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to speaking with you about this employment opportunity.
Best Regards,
Your Signature (hard copy letter)
Joe Applicant
