Greeting in a Cover Letter

The typical ending of a cover letter is sincerely. In emails you can also write:

Note: If you end the salutation with a comma or colon, use a comma after the greeting. If you didn't punctuate the salutation, don't punctuate the greeting.

Position: Write the greeting two lines below the last paragraph and left-justify it.

Leave 4 blank lines after the greeting (space for the signature) and write the sender's name below that space.
