Letter Writing Assignment Feedback, Hints, and Helps to incorporate into your cover letter:
~Use a full block style (everything aligned along the left margin) to be more professional. See sample PDF.
~Don't forget to include an inside address.
~Include both the person's name and title in the inside address.
~Use a colon after the salutation (again, more professional).
~Be sure and give your contact information in the final paragraph.
~Don't forget to sign your name with a pen. Don't just leave the 3 spaces blank between Sincerely and your printed name.
~Avoid contractions to present a more formal English approach.
~If your letter exceeds one page, be sure and include page numbers ( page 2 of 2) and your name and one form of contact (phone number).
