To Ms. / Mr. Person you are applying to,

Catchy introductory sentence.  Specific position you are applying for. Any recommendations or experience with the company you have (this can also go in the first sentence).

How your specific skills gleaned from your experience will benefit you in performing the job and helping the company.  You may use one or two paragraphs for this section.  Like with a resume, try to keep your paragraphs limited to six lines or less (although this is not a hard-and-fast rule).

What follow-up actions you will take.  What follow-up actions you expect from the company.

Sincere Sign-off,
