Furthermore and Moreover > interchangeable
There are close synonoyns >meaning " in addition "
They can be used to link 2 sentences as a transitional adverbs , not conjunction ,such as "and " and but" . So, since there are not conjunctions you have to put a semi-colon before and a comma after these 2 words when you join them (not a comma) , or you can break them into 2 sentence .
It is not too show "similarities" but to "add" to what you said earlier with something that is of interest or worthy of mention ( in your opinion)
I love this job because it pays well , moreover, it's very near to my house X
I love this job because it pays well ; moreover, it's very near to my house
I love this job because it pays well . Moreover, it's very near to my house
I love this job because it pays well ,and it's very near to my house ( using conjunction "and")
