I have a some questions about cover letter etiquette. It seems that today's cover letters are now the body of the e-mail you send along with your resume attachment. This to me seems to make cover letters a little less formal. I'm worried that my cover letters sound jilted and robotic when what I really want to convey is excitement about the opportunity at hand. I'm wondering what kind of wordage is appropriate for these types of e-mails especially since the jobs that we're going for are creative jobs and some personality needs to shine through. Is it ever ok to start an e-mail out with "Hey!" or "Hi!"? I usually seem to start out my e-mails with "Hi, my name is Dr Rotcod and I'm currently living in so and so..". That just seems so bland to me. I'd love to know some tips on this so I can stand out amongst the flood of e-mails an employer gets from craigslist users.
