What should the final paragraph of a cover letter include?
Show your gratitude. Express an appreciation for the reader's consideration of your credentials. It takes time to review a cover letter and resume carefully, so communicate your thanks.
Express your enthusiasm. Include a gentle interest in next steps but be polite. You should request an interview but never demand one or declare that you'll call the office in the coming week.
Succinctly remid your value. The final paragraph of a cover letter should remind a recruiter of the value you'll provide to the organization if you are hired.
Use a professional sign-off. End with a professional sign-off, such as "Sincerely," "Thank you," or "Best regards."
