Rather than a letter you might want to make a phone call and set up an appointment with the Human Resources Department. Find out what  openings are available. If they like you they'll help you fit in somewhere if they can. At least you'll know. While you are waiting check into jobs with Temp agencies. Around here they jobs pay very well and are often a foot in the door to something permanent. Good luck.

When you don't have experience, letters of reference would be helpful, especially when stating things like:  "In my experience with XX I have found him/her to be reliable, capable, enthusiastic and willing to learn."  These are very key job skills and if you can back them up with a couple of letters of reference from say a teacher/counselor at school;  your church; even from someone you babysat for?  did errands for?  did some work around their house??\n\nIn your cover letter I'd say something to the effect:\n\nI would like the opportunity to work for your company.  I am willing to learn and am anxious to find a company who is willing to teach me more about managing.  I feel it would be a mutually advantageous situation.\n\nI look forward to interviewing with you so that we may discuss in detail how my employment with your company would be beneficial to you.\n\nGood luck!

I think you've done a good job so far! It was great that you sent a thank you to the interviewer. I wouldn't bug them too much because they probably have a certain amount of time that they are allowing to accept applications. As an employer, I had a potential employee send me a nice, handwritten note a few days after the interview telling me that she would enjoy working for me and to please consider her for the job. It was short and pleasant and I didn't feel pressured. I ended up hiring her and she and I truly do work well together. Aside from that, you need to be patient. Good luck!

Never open with "Dear Sir"\n\nGet the name of the person to whom you are writing.\n\nDear Mr. Jones:\n\nWhich job search website? Be specific.\nWhich company? Either put "your company" or include the company name. \n\n"I am a full-time student attending Coastal Carolina University working towards a bachelor's degree in Hospitality Management."\n\nThe middle section is far too long. Cut it up. It's also incredibly repetitive.\n\n"Working in the hospitality industry for over a year, I have ...managed? Increased? Etc..."\n\nBasically, you're not telling them why they should hire you, which is what you need to do. You are telling them ABOUT you and what you are looking for. They don't care about that--they just care why you would be an asset to their company.\n\n You need to relook at it--do not try to butter them up, and you need to make this cover letter POP above all the other cover letters.

In the letter, regardless of how you open it, stick with life events, stay away from politics.  Write about the things you think are best in life.  Something cute or insightful about a child.  Something your dog did.  Do not fill the letter with negative things about your spouse, your work, or friends.  Show enough personality to not make it seem like a form letter, though.  Ask enough questions about her day to day life that she knows you are truly interested.  But don't overload it with questions. \n\nMake inquiry about what she would like to receive for holiday gifts or if there is anything she needs but cannot get there.  Offer to contact and stay in touch with her family or friends.  \n\nThis sounds like a real exercise in writing, but I am confident you will do a good job.  \n\nI know she will be grateful.  We had one friend spend a year overseas, he is now in Korea, and have another friend getting ready to go to Iraq.  \n\nWe sent care packages to the one, will do same for the other.\n\nBeef jerky, microwave popcorn, powdered coffee flavoring, coffee in the filter packs, soft cotton t shirts, tempurpedic pillow, Ramen noodles, in addition to homemade cookies, candy.  In place of styrofoam packing peanuts, we bought bags of chocolate candies.  Increases the weight to ship somewhat, but he was ever so grateful, as that is as good as currency in the theater.  As a female there may be feminine items she cannot get there, that you could offer to get for her.\n\nThank you for doing this.

Correspondence to business and organisations has to be written in a formal manner. \nA cover Letter should never be longer than one page.\nMention achievements or strengths, apart from your qualifications and job experience. (uncertain what is meant here). Check out Writing about your achievements.\nYour letter should be address to a specific person. Job research is very important. One of the results of your job research should be the name of the person responsible for the recruitment. \nKeep the letter to the point. The letter must be easy to read and follow.\n\nDo not send a hand written cover letter if you are not asked. If the job advert specifies a http://www.cvtips.com/letter_writing_sample.html letter writing sample then send one! Make sure the letter is error free and that the same font is used throughout. Make sure that your letter and CV are similar in style.\nUse top quality stationary. The envelope, the paper and the style of your CV stationary should match that of the cover letter.\nMake sure that whatever you write in your cover letter is backed up by facts or at least be able to convincingly back them up in the interview.\nConvey your enthusiasm about the job opportunity. You have to show that you are confident in your expectations about the job selection but do not be 'cocky'.\nSign your cover letter and write your name in block capitals under your signature.\n\nMore details on http://www.cvtips.com/how_to_write_a_cover_letter.html

It's not that much different from a cover letter for a resume.  You want to say what you could do for them and what kind of experience you have to offer (even if it's helping with phones or office equipment, or if you have a car to run errands - think about how you could be useful to them)\n\nYou could also mention something about why you would want to work for them, and what you would like to learn.

Resignation letters should be very simple and not give too much detail.  \n\n"Dear (manager name),\n\nI am submitting my resignation as (position) effective 11-13-06.  My last day will be (give date - make sure it's two weeks or longer as anything less could be viewed as negative).  I have taken another position that will require my relocation.  (You can verbally tell them, just don't document).\n\nI have learned much and enjoyed my time at (xyz company).  My leaving is no way a reflection on XYZ company or it's management.  \n\nName

Consider the purpose of the reference letter.  Is it for a job or as character reference for election to a medical organization?  Emphasize skill or character as necessary.  Indicate how it is you can write the letter, for example years of association and in what capacity, etc.  Good luck.

One of the more common forms of the job search involves applying for jobs from either the newspaper, Internet job boards (such as monster.com) or internal resources.  It is good business etiquette to include a cover letter when applying for the position.\n\nWhat to include in the cover letter:\n\n1.  Your name and contact information at the top of the cover letter. It is ideal to use the same heading as the resume for purposes of consistency.\n\n2.  Today's date and the name of the contact person at the company and their job title, if this information is available.\n\n3.  The name of the company and company address\n\nThe greeting should be Dear Mr./Ms. XXXXXXX.  If you do not know the name of the contact person, then the the cover letter should be addressed to the Title, such as Dear  Human Resources Manager or Dear Hiring Manager.  In worse case scenario, it is safe to introduce the cover letter to the Human Resources Manager, even if you are unsure of the title.  You can use "To Whom it May Concern," but it is ideal to address the cover letter in a more formal manner. \n\nThe first paragraph should be an introduction and should include your intention to apply for the job, the job title, internal job ID or job number if specified, and the company name. You should also include the date of posting and the name of the resource where the job is posted (Newspaper name, job board) with the name of the resource written in italics.\n\nThe body of the cover letter can include a number of items, but ideally you want to provide an over description of your career, experience and ability to perform the tasks involved in the job position. Try to address requirements that are listed in the job position and directly respond to these requirements within the cover letter.  The cover letter should also mention your enclosure or attachment (if emailed) of the resume and should either invite the reader to contact you or state your intentions to contact the employer.  The salutation should simply read -- Sincerely, followed by your name with 4 spaces in between.  Your written signature should go between the salutation and your name if you are submitting a printed copy.

My last day will be _________________.\n\n     Thank you for the enriching experience you have given me.\n\n                                                   Sincerely,\n\n                                                    ____________________

You should just write a sincere but businesslike letter.  Of course, it depends why you missed this person, but writing a letter is a good instinct.\n\nHope it works out!
