1. How to write a job
application

2. General points
 Keep it brief. You don’t need to give a lot of detail. What you are
aiming for is a clear and concise explanation of your suitability for the
job.
 Begin your letter or email ‘Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms xxxx’ if you know the
person’s name, or ‘Dear Sir or Madam’ if you don’t know their name.
 Avoid inappropriate language such as slang or technical jargon.
 Use brief, informative sentences and short paragraphs.
 Check your spelling, grammar, and punctuation carefully. Some
employers routinely discard job applications that contain such
mistakes.

3. Three main parts
 The body of this job application letter is divided into
three sections:
 First Paragraph: Explain why you are writing - mention the job you
are applying for and where you found the listing (news media,
friend..)
 Middle Paragraph: State what you have to offer the employer -
mention why your personal skills and experiences are a good fit for
the job. For each skill or quality you mention, provide a specific
example.
 Last Paragraph: Say thank you to the hiring manager for considering
you and note how you will follow up. Provide follow-up details
