What is the right format to write a cover letter

We would like to inform you that there are several steps you shall follow to write a letter. The format is as follows:

 - The salutation

 - The sender, for example: To Whom It May Concern or Dear Sir/Madam.

- First paragraph of your letter: The first paragraph of your letter should contain information about the reason for writing it.  Mention the job you are applying for and where you found the job list.  Include the name of a reciprocal contact, if any.

- The second paragraph of your letter: State specifically how your qualifications match the job you are applying for.  Think of this part of your cover letter where you can make a presentation of your suitability as an employee and show what makes you a great candidate.  Keep in mind that employers will care more about what you can do for them, rather than a list of work experiences.  Make the relationship between your qualifications and the job requirements clear.  Use this section to interpret your resume.

-The last paragraph: Conclude your cover letter by thanking the employer for considering your job application. Include information about how to contact you.  Optionally, you can briefly explain why you are a good candidate.

 - Closure of the letter: Writing a phrase like Kind Regards, then write the signature.
