I want a cover letter that tells me that the person has read the ad, and is responding TO ME, about MY AD. It's a letter, not a stock piece of paper. For example: Dear Mr. Lester, My colleague Bill Odom referred me to the job recently posted on jobs.perl.org. I believe that I can help Follett with a good set of skills, including: * 4 years of database apps for MyCo, including.... * 3 years Perl experience, including two CPAN modules (http://...) that extend DBI.... * A BS in CS from UIUC, with a 3.7 GPA. * Experience in the book industry, and a natural love of books. I look forward for a chance to meet with you to discuss your needs and how I can help you and FLR. -- Andy Lester => [EMAIL PROTECTED] => www.petdance.com => AIM:petdance
