I am working in a ship manning agency as Manager Shipping. Now I want to switch my position to any admin position of similar or outside industry. Now, I need an ideal cover letter to forward it to some prospective organization. There are some dos and don'ts in the cover letter (like not to mention application for a suitable position). Considering all, I hope to get a sample letter format from this useful service.
