Best Cover Letter
Feb 4, 2012
What is the best way to start a cover letter?
I know what I want to say in the letter, but I am having difficulty finding a good introduction sentence. Should I be bold or reserved in my introduction statement? I am sending my resume to a company that offers an admintrator in training program (healthcare).
I always use to start with
Experience, interest, and enthusiam…..
(skip a few lines for attention grabber)
…..are just some of the qualities that I can bring to the _________position at your company.

Aurelia Farnham believes she is happy living in London’s stylish Cavendish Square. But with her friends Livia and Cornelia both married now, Aurelia is the only one still husbandless, and sometimes she longs for more.

Confessions Of A Hiring Manager $18.45 Confessions of a Hiring Manager is not just another book on getting a job: the market already is saturated with such books by business writers, résumé writers, and career coaches with advice on how to write an attention-grabbing cover letter and résumé, or how to “ace” the interview. While the efforts of such professionals may provide some help and value, it is the hiring manager who ultimately determines who gets hired. The hiring manager’s perspective offers valuable insight into unwritten corporate hiring practices and guidance on how to address an organization’s needs. Résumé writers or career coaches offer a perspective of being on the outside looking in; the hiring manager is already on the inside and knows the subtleties that give one candidate the edge over others who may be equally qualified.Veteran hiring manager J.T. Kirk provides insight into those qualities hiring managers need and want in addition to the requisite skills, experience, and knowledge prospective candidates offer. Kirk shows job seekers and career changers-including military veterans returning to the civilian workforce-how to package their work history into a Professional Skills, Knowledge, and Experience Portfolio (PSKE Portfolio™) that separates the value-add candidate from all other applicants. In addition, he shares strategies for negotiating the best possible compensation package without leaving money on the table. Confessions of a Hiring Manager offers a view from the other side of the desk that reveals the perspectives, presuppositions, and expectations hiring managers have of people looking for a job or a new career. While résumé writers and career coaches may give you a fish to feed you for a day, Confessions of a Hiring Manager teaches you how to fish so you can feed yourself for a lifetime. |

Excerpt: Cover of the Australasian Post for January 29, 1953. Australasian Post, or “Aussie Post,” was Australia’s longest-running weekly picture magazine. The origins of Australasian Post date back Saturday January 3rd 1857 to the first volume of the publication Bell’s Life in Victoria and Sporting Chronicle (probably best known for Tom Wills 1858 famous Australian rules football letter). The weekly publication was based on the format of Bell’s Life in London and produced by Charles Frederic Somerton in Melbourne . The paper expanded to the Sydney market with “Bell’s life in Sydney and sporting reviewer” (later sporting chronicle), first published in Saturday, Oct. 13, 1860. In 1864, the weekly newspaper The Australasian was launched to an Australian and New Zealand audience in a similar format to Bell’s Life papers but with a much less focus on sport. As a result, the local paper “Bell’s Life in Victoria” and “Bell’s Life in Sydney” were gradually phased out of publication and on Saturday January 4th, 1868 the last issue (no. 504) and Saturday, Dec. 31, 1870 (no. 731) respectively and the Australasian adopted locally based editions during the transition. The Australasian was read by millions at the height of its popularity in the 60s and 70s, and features a uniquely Australian mix of scandal, sensationalism , human interest stories, fashion, politics, culture and entertainment. It was the staple of barber shops across the country. One of its best features is its focus on Australiana , with |

Hebrews $39.95 Scarcely any book of the New Testament (with the possible exception of Revelation) is so perplexing as the Letter to the Hebrews. Not really a letter, but a sermon with some features of a letter added to it, not really by its putative author, Paul, but by an anonymous Christian who wrote some of the most elegant Greek in the Bible, not really addressed to the Hebrews, but to Christians, probably in Rome–this is the work that Alan Mitchell explains in this commentary. Many scholars have written fine commentaries on Hebrews, and Mitchell stands on their shoulders, noting where he proposes alternate interpretations. Mitchell pays particular attention to the reliance of the author of Hebrews on the Greek Old Testament (the Septuagint). He also compares the language of Hebrews with similar usage and ideas of first-century Hellenistic Jewish authors, notably Flavius Josephus and Philo of Alexandria. Furthermore, he situates Hebrews against the background of the tradition of Hellenistic Moral Philosophy, where that is appropriate. Mitchell thus locates Hebrews in its proper thought-world, something that is essential for the modern reader in dealing with some of the thornier questions raised by this biblical book. Chief among these are the role of sacrificial atonement, the question of second repentance, and the spiritual and moral formation of the Roman Christians who were its recipients. Like all the volumes in the Sacra Pagina series, this work examines the text in detail, with careful attention to the words and phrasing, and then brings those individual insights together into a coherent summary. The bibliography and special lists appended to each chapter cover the best of recentscholarship on the Letter to the Hebrews. |

Legal Limit $30.95 Martin Clark’s most remarkable novel yet is the gripping, complex story of a murder cover-up that wreaks widespread havoc even as it redefines the concept of justice—a relentlessly entertaining saga that delves deeply into matters at once ambiguous and essential.While Gates Hunt chose to fight his abusive father head-on, his younger brother, Mason, eventually escaped their bitter, impoverished circumstances by earning a free ride to college and law school. And while Gates became an intransigent, compulsive felon, Mason met and married the love of his life, had a spitfire daughter, and returned to his rural hometown as the commonwealth’s attorney. But Mason’s idyll is abruptly pierced by a wicked tragedy, and soon afterward his life further unravels when Gates, convinced that his brother’s legal influence should spring him from prison, attempts to force his cooperation by means of a secret they’d both sworn to take with them to the grave. And with his closest friend and staunch ally suddenly threatened by secrets of his own, Mason ultimately finds himself facing complete ruin and desperately defending everything and everyone he holds dear.Intricately plotted and shot through with authenticity, The Legal Limit is a roller coaster of moral relevance. What should govern our actions when family loyalty challenges personal integrity, when the letter of the law defies its spirit, and when fate plays dice with our best endeavors? |

Life, Liberty, And Happiness: An Optimist Manifesto $11.99 “Writing in a highly readable style, independent of religious dogma, Robinson in Life, Liberty, and Happiness comprehensively tackles the big questions with the basic understanding that ‘if you keep before you the core idea, “live and let live,” you will never go far wrong’ . . . Robinson offers a coherent viewpoint on the big questions, a comprehensive optimist manifesto, not packed with bland bromides but thought-provoking ideas.”-The Review of MetaphysicsThere’s no shortage of gloom-and-doom viewpoints about humanity: our history of violence and war, environmental profligacy, economic and social injustice, etc. Frank S. Robinson has written this “optimist manifesto” as an antidote to such poisonous pessimism. Here you will find some radical and refreshing assertions: that most people are fundamentally good, that global society is getting better all the time, and that, in the big picture, humankind is not at the end of a brief, tragic existence but, rather, has just embarked on a long, bright future.What started as an extended letter to his daughter, one father’s effort to leave an intellectual legacy, grew to comprehensively cover and tie together the big philosophical, political, social, and economic issues. Writing in a highly readable style, Robinson steadfastly emphasizes reason as our best tool for discovering truth and making objective decisions. It is through this consistently rational approach to life that he argues for a positive humanistic vision, based on people being left free to pursue their dreams. Celebrating our human character and achievement as well as American ideals of liberty and opportunity, this compelling work is packed with thought-provoking ideas that engage the mind. Good-humored and entertaining, yet intellectually rigorous, it has a positive, optimistic message: we can live good and happy lives; today’s world is the best ever; and tomorrow’s will be better still!Frank S.

Winner, The New York Public Library, Best of Reference Award, 2002 Here is a fascinating chronological history of New York City from 1524-2001, looking at the people, building, instiutions, political events, music and businesses that helped shape the city. Booklist The entries are well written and cover a broad range of topics, including political, social, and cultural, and the reader often cannot help but utter, ‘I didn’t know that.’ ARBA online Kroessler does a fine job of chronicling the city’s past, incorporating both little-known, flash-in-the-pan nuggest as well as far-reaching, recurring themes. Queens ChronicleIf any city deserves a complete chronology, it is surely New York.New York, Year by Yearis a cornucopia of the familiar and the forgotten, the historic and the ephemeral, the heroic and the banal. In this handy reference work, Jeffrey A. Kroessler takes us from Verrazano’s arrival in 1524 into the new millennium, highlighting the strikes and strikeouts, tunnels and towers, personalities and parades which not only made history in New York, but also proved to be defining moments for the nation. New York, Year by Yearfeatures events such as Mark Twain’s first lecture at Cooper Union, and the letter he later wrote when the Brooklyn Public Library tried to restrict access toHuckleberry Finn. In contrast, we are reminded of the publication in the 1950s ofEloise, A Book for Precocious Grown-Ups, Kay Thompson’s fanciful tale of a little girl’s adventures in the Plaza Hotel, the appearance of the Beat Generation, and the flight (literally) of the Dodgers and Giants to California.New York, Yearby Yearchronicles the opening of Shea Stadium in April 1964 and the performance by the Beatles there that August.

Symbols of New Hampshire: Live Free or Die, Seal of New Hampshire, Flag of New Hampshire, New Hampshire State Tartan, Emblem of New Hampshire $8.96 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: Live Free or Die, Seal of New Hampshire, Flag of New Hampshire, New Hampshire State Tartan, Emblem of New Hampshire, Flag of the State of New Hampshire, Great Seal of the State of New Hampshire. Excerpt: “Live Free or Die” is the official motto of the U.S. state of New Hampshire, adopted by the state in 1945. It is possibly the best-known of all state mottos, partly because it speaks to an assertive independence historically found in American political philosophy and partly because of its contrast to the milder sentiments found in other state mottos. The phrase comes from a toast written by General John Stark on July 31, 1809. Poor health forced Stark, New Hampshire’s most famous soldier of the American Revolutionary War, to decline an invitation to an anniversary reunion of the Battle of Bennington. Instead, he sent his toast by letter: Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils.The motto was enacted at the same time as the state emblem, on which it appears. In 1971, the New Hampshire state legislature mandated that the phrase appear on all non-commercial license plates, replacing “Scenic.” In 1977, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the case of Wooley v. Maynard, 430 U.S. 705, that the State of New Hampshire could not prosecute motorists who chose to hide part or all of the motto. That ruling came about because George Maynard, a Jehovah’s Witness, covered up “or die” from his plate. “y religious training and belief, I believe my ‘government’ – Jehovah’s Kingdom – offers everlasting life. It would be contrary to that belief to give up my life for the state, even if it meant living in bondage.” Pursuant to these beliefs, the Maynards began early in 1974 to cover up the motto on their license plates. He was convicted of breaking a state l… More: |

The Legal Limit $24.95 Martin Clark’s most remarkable novel yet is the gripping, complex story of a murder cover-up that wreaks widespread havoc even as it redefines the concept of justice—a relentlessly entertaining saga that delves deeply into matters at once ambiguous and essential.While Gates Hunt chose to fight his abusive father head-on, his younger brother, Mason, eventually escaped their bitter, impoverished circumstances by earning a free ride to college and law school. And while Gates became an intransigent, compulsive felon, Mason met and married the love of his life, had a spitfire daughter, and returned to his rural hometown as the commonwealth’s attorney. But Mason’s idyll is abruptly pierced by a wicked tragedy, and soon afterward his life further unravels when Gates, convinced that his brother’s legal influence should spring him from prison, attempts to force his cooperation by means of a secret they’d both sworn to take with them to the grave. And with his closest friend and staunch ally suddenly threatened by secrets of his own, Mason ultimately finds himself facing complete ruin and desperately defending everything and everyone he holds dear.Intricately plotted and shot through with authenticity, The Legal Limit is a roller coaster of moral relevance. What should govern our actions when family loyalty challenges personal integrity, when the letter of the law defies its spirit, and when fate plays dice with our best endeavors? |
