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.

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. Arthur Fleischmann
