Dear Ms. Roberts:
Paragraph One
State reason for letter, name the position or type of work you are applying for, and identify the source from which you’ve got to know of the vacancy (i.e.: career development center, newspaper, employment service, web advertisement, personal contact).
Paragraph Two and may be Three
Tell why you are interested in the position, the company, its products and services. Above all, stress what you can do for the employer. If you are a recent graduate, explain how your academic background makes you a qualified candidate for the position. If you have practical work experience, point out specific achievements or unique qualifications, even though these  will also appear in your resume. In the cover letter, the description of your abilities will allow the reader not only to get a quick, efficient view of your major selling points; but also to understand your tone and personality. After pointing out your highlights and abilities that make you suitable for the position ( internship, scholarship, prize money, etc.) refer the reader to your enclosed resume or application, which summarizes your qualifications, training, and experiences.
This paragraph, or perhaps these two paragraphs, are very important. Here you use your rhetoric art in the best way. This is the place where you describe your experience, education, and personality to convince the reader that you are the one whom they need .
Paragraph Three or Four
 Request a personal interview and indicate your flexibility as to the time and place. Write your phone number in the letter and offer assistance to help in a speedy response. For example, state that you will be in the city where the company is located on a certain date and would like to be interviewed. Or, state that you will call on a certain date and ask about the interview. Finish the letter by thanking the employer for the time to consider your application.
Sincerely yours,
Jane Jobseeker
