What to include in a cover letter
Try to limit your letter to a single page. ...
Assess the employer's needs and your skills. ...
As much as possible, tailor your letter to each job opportunity. ...
Write in a style that is mature but clear; avoid long and intricate sentences and paragraphs; avoid jargon.

that's the way I set up my mine, not the best in English but great in communications.

misssunshinexxoxo · Answer

Overall, B makes the most logical sense. :)

I'm pretty sure it is D. Experience means a lot. Employers look for people with experience. It means less work for them and can mean a better worker for them because they already know what they are doing. By just saying you are a capable individual, that doesn't give any information on what you are capable at or what qualities make you capable.
