Cover Letter Check List

Use this checklist to insure that your cover letter is complete:

	One page only - broken down into 3-5 targeted paragraphs
	Use your computer with full spell-check (Canadian eh?)
	Write to someone specific if details given, with the name and title spelled correctly
	Ensure the school/district name and address are correct and complete
	If sending via snail mail use quality bond paper (ideally the same as your r�sum�)
	3-5 focused paragraphs (focused on the employer's needs, not yours)
	Close the letter formally e.g. Sincerely or Yours truly
	If sending via snail mail remember to sign your cover letter
	Send in a business envelope (to avoid folding all of your paperwork)
	Type or neatly print address (the return address too) on envelope
	Final step: do not forget to follow up, or all the other steps will be in vain!
