Organization

Advanced

There is an introduction, body, and conclusion. There is also a proper salutation at the end with their signature and their typed name. The entire cover letter amounts to no more than a page in length. It makes for a good introduction to their resume.
Prficient

Basic

An attempt was made to organize the cover letter, but there are still significant problems that distract the viewer from reading it from top to bottom.

The cover letter has little to no organization whatsoever, which could mean inconsistent fonts, no separation of paragraphs, or improper ordering of topics.

A few minor pieces of content are missing that are crucial in order to make the cover letter top-notch.
Basic

There are significant parts of the cover letter that are missing or are inserted improperly.
