How do you sign off a cover letter?

Here’s how you sign off a cover letter:

  1. If you greeted the contact person by name to start your cover letter, sign off with “Yours sincerely,”
  2. If you addressed your cover letter to “Sir/Madam” or a company/team name, use “Yours faithfully,”
  3. Then type your name, or sign your name in ink followed by your typed name

Ensure the employer reads your sign-off by writing a standout cover letter.

Your sign-off doesn’t matter if you don’t write a strong cover letter. Highlight your most relevant achievements in every section of your cover letter to keep the employer reading until the end.
