What kinds of jobs are you looking for where you're writing cover letters and such? If you're 18, the best you could do is probably a server, fast food, or something in retail. And for those jobs, it shouldn't be too hard to find a place with a help wanted sign.
Maybe you aren't going for the right approach. Instead of just writing a cover letter and shipping it off with a resume, try to get someone to speak with you in person. Go in and ask to speak to the manager. They'll tell you to fill out an application, but start asking questions and engaging with them before you leave. That might be enough to get a second look.
IIN that I get very anxious at the idea of finding a job at 18?

I dont think hes limited at 18 but showing up for the job does show initiative , much better than a faceless letter
