A letter of application, also
known as a cover letter, is a job
application document sent with
your resume to provide
additional information on your
skills and experience.
The letter of application is intended to
provide detailed information on why
are you are qualified for the job you
are applying for. Effective application
letters explain the reasons for your
interest in the specific organization
and identify your most relevant skills
or experiences.
 When writing an application
letter you should include:

o Subject (for an email letter)

List the job you are applying for and your
name in the subject line of your email message,
so the employer is clear as to what job you are
interested in and who you are. If this is a
traditional letter, include a heading with your
name and address, the date, and the employer’s
name and address.
o
Greeting
Begin your letter greeting with
"Dr./Mr./Ms. Last Name." If you do not
know the employer's last name, simply
write "Dear Hiring Manager" or leave
the greeting off the letter and start with
the first paragraph.
o Body of Letter

1. First Paragraph : Explain why you

are writing - mention the job you are
applying for and where you found
the listing.
2. Middle Paragraph(s) : State what
you have to offer the employer -
mention why your skills and
experiences are a good fit for the
job. For each skill or quality you
mention, provide a specific
example.

End your cover letter with your

signature, handwritten, followed by
your typed name. If this is an email,
