Cover Letters

• The cover letter should be personalized for every job you apply for.
• Use "Sincerely" as your closing.
• The paper should match the paper you used for your resume.
• Make sure that you are addressing the person correctly. If I am the Human Resources director, then I wouldn't want my name misspelled.
• A little extra that I personally use: Paper Direct has paper that has business cards embedded in the lower corner. Most cover letters are not kept, but they can punch out your business card and keep that.

Thank You Letters

• Thank you letters should be sent out within two days of the interview.
• A resume should be included with the thank you letter.
• If you forget to mention a point in your interview this is the perfect place to bring it up.
• Mention that you are looking forward to hearing the decision of the employer.
