what is the best strategy for writing a cover letter?

a. write in a casual, personable style that breaks the ice.

b. avoid details that might show you researched the company.

c. provide a deadline for when the employer should reply.

d. give some information about your long - term career goals.

Explanation:

• Option A: A cover letter should be professional, not overly casual, so this is incorrect.
• Option B: Showing that you've researched the company (by including relevant details) is a good strategy, so avoiding such details is wrong.
• Option C: Providing a deadline for the employer to reply is pushy and inappropriate for a cover letter.
• Option D: Mentioning long - term career goals can show your commitment and how you align with the company's future, which is a good strategy for a cover letter.

Answer:

D. Give some information about your long - term career goals.
