Article: Ending your letter of application on the right note is a very important part of your letter as it can help you land the interview.  When you explain how you can contribute to the company, remember that you want to put yourself in the shoes of the hiring manager. It’s about how your contributions will help the company, not how the company will help you. Ask yourself what you would be looking for in a candidate if you were hiring. Inform your reader that you would love the opportunity to speak further about the position and provide your contact info again.  You can conclude your letter by thanking the hiring manager and ending with a statement like I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. Don’t just ask the hiring manager to contact you if he feels you are a good fit. Show some confidence (without being cocky) by telling him that you look forward to speaking further. Signing off can seem like an afterthought, or become frustrating if you don’t know what is appropriate.  Use Yours sincerely or simply “Best”.  Being too formal can hurt you here as you may come off insincere, or it may not fit the style of the rest of your letter. By saying something like “Best” or “Best wishes”, you show respect without sounding like you’re writing a love letter. Alternatively, something like “Cheers” may be too informal and can come off as presumptuous. After you sign off, write your full name on the last line, and consider including a signature.  If you have set up a signature on your word processor, you can insert it under your name. Alternatively, you can print out your letter and sign your name by hand if you wish. Although with this method, you will have to scan your letter back into your computer. A signature is not always required.
