Job application covering letter

     

What to be Included

Career Objective Statement: 

Career Objective statements should be clear, precise and brief.  Briefly explain your aspirations and make use of specific job titles and specific phrases describing the applicants preferred working environment.

Your Profile:

 The profile is a brief summary of the applicant himself, highlighting the applicant's most impressive skills, abilities and accomplishments.

Educational Qualifications:

The type of Degree / Diploma ( Highest Qualification First ), Name and location of institution,  Years of study, Subjects and specialisation, any special awards. You may include GPA / Grades / Percentage of Marks obtained  if important to the specific position.

Work Experience:

Name and location of Current employer and previous employer(s), Period of employment, major achievements and accomplishments on the job, major responsibilities and projects executed with specific information about the role you played, name and contact information of  supervisor. You must include the Skills acquired

Trainings, Seminars or Workshops:

If you've attended specialized training courses, seminars or workshops, be sure to list these as well.

Skills:

 Here you must specify your abilities. Things you can actually do (as opposed to generalized skills - better to let an employer know you have leadership skills from reading your work or training history rather than telling them you have "leadership skills"). For example, software you may know well, systems you may understand, etc.

 

Getting to know your prospective employer before the interview is, perhaps, your best chance at landing that dream job in that dream company.

When you apply for a job it is likely that you will be asked to fill in an application form or send a curriculum vitae (CV) with a resume covering letter
