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

Give the employer time to finish evaluating applications before you contact them with a follow-up.
