% The next section of your cover letter should describe what you have to offer the company. Make strong connections between your abilities and the requirements listed in the job posting. Mention specifically how your skills and experience match the job. Expand on the information in your resume, don't just repeat it.

% Conclude your application letter by thanking the employer for considering you for the position. Include information on how you will follow-up.

I look forward to hearing from you, and do not hesitate contacting me if you have any questions.
