KD 3.28 & 4.28 : Writing an Application Letter
Letter of Application Tips
Depending on what it contains, how you prepared it, and how you formatted it, a letter of application can either make you or break you. To make sure that your application letter format will support you, consider the following tips:
#1.Get right to the point
The first paragraph of your job application template should already state the purpose.
- Indicate the job you’re applying for
- the source of the job vacancy listing
- mention why you’re the right person for the position
#2. Offer a variety of information
Instead of being too technical, tone down your language on a more personal level, not to sound like the contents of your bullet-point resume. An anecdote about your career and work experience will do just fine. Although a resume is a must when applying for a job, the application letter should highlight relevant information which your resume cannot do.
#3.Make a good case for yourself
The main objective of your letter of application is you can have the opportunity for a job interview which hopefully will get you a job offer.
- Share your experiences and job background which demonstrates why you’re a very qualified candidate.
- Highlight your strengths.
#4. Close the letter with relevant details
Don’t forget to include a note of thanks towards the end of the letter to show your appreciation for considering you for the position.
