Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) The final paragraph of your application letter has two important functions: to ask the reader for a specific action (usually an interview) and to facilitate a reply.

Answer to Question 2

Explanation: C) An employer will issue a close date to indicate that material for applications under consideration will still be accepted until that time, so interviews may not be scheduled until after that date. Give the employer time to finish evaluating applications before you contact them with a follow-up.
