Dear Mr. Contact, Use short, concise paragraphs with plenty of white space. Limit your cover letter to 4 or 5 short paragraphs. This should be a summary of the key information you want the reader to know about you. Use the same header as that of your resume, for consistency. Make sure your email address is included. The reader should not have to search to locate your name or contact information. Your education, skills, professional experience, and career/internship goals should all be briefly covered. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
