The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state __ __ the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in that things a possible employer is most to want to know about are your qualification, your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. the first few sentences fail to the readers’ attention, the rest of the letter may not be at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer, not your own needs or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your in today’s newspaper”. You might say , “I have made a careful of your advertising during the past six months” or “ I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives your product and why they like it”.
Try to generalities (笼统) . Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now ___ . College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I ?” in a letter. Employers want experience---which, naturally, no has. The answer is that everything you have ever done is .
It is important to write a good strong closing remark for your letter. a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent _ is to enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
