Application Letter Application letter (sometimes
called "cover letter” because it is sent with a resume/CV in the same envelope)
is aimed at getting a job interview. Special attention is paid to writing a letter of application
for a job. Suppose that there are a lot of applicants for a particular
job. Consequently, there are a lot of CVs and letters of application. A good CV
and a letter may get you an interview, whereas a bad CV and a letter may be
ignored. There is one common mistake many applicants make. That is,
they phrase their letter of application in an unusual way. Remember a
straightforward letter gives more favorable impression. A letter of application must be handwritten. Do not use
colored ink. Black or dark blue is best. Generally, there are two types of letters of application. Solicited
application letter is sent to a definite, or announced, job opening. Unsolicited or
"prospecting” letter is sent to a company that did not announce an opening. The objectives of
an application letter are: -
to get attention; -
to introduce qualification; -
to present evidence; -
to encourage action. Remember: your
application letter will represent you to the employer. If several applicants
have the same qualification, only those writing impressive letters will be
interviewed.
