with nothing but an email address.

I'm having trouble with the appropriate salutation. Usually you use the formal

"Dear HR or Hiring name here"

But, if you don't know the name, and there's no number to call, just a fax, what's the best way to go about responding with the proper Salutation?

1. I think a simple "Greetings!" would suffice.

4. This might be the best option

it's a local company, but damned if I can find out who works there. :crazy:

Thanks. flvegan. :hi:

2. Or write Dear__________________.

3. "Dear Hitler"

6. if they ask you to undress, it's probably not a legitimate offer

7. There are a few positions one might apply for where that would be appropriate.

Like missionary or reverse cowgirl.
