I have this computer program called "The Perfect Resume" that provides
several cover letters and all I had to do was fill in the blanks for specific
details about the jobs.

Hi all.  I have a question that has not been addressed on this forum.  I am
currently searching for a job in the museum field.  I have sent out many
cold letters with no responses.  I suspect that a lot that has to do with it
is the cover letter.  Here is my question.  What have people written in
their cover letter that has landed them a job.  I would prefer specific
sentences taken out of the cover letter, etc. rather than simply
"I stressed certain skills that pertained to the job" or something like that.
Reply on or off the forum.  Thanks for your help.
