Answer:
1. An application letter, also known as a cover letter, is a
document sent alongside a resume when applying for a job or
other opportunities. It typically includes a brief introduction, a
summary of your qualifications and experiences, and a specific
statement of interest in the position or opportunity. The
purpose of the letter is to highlight how your skills and
experiences align with the requirements of the job or program
and to persuade the reader to consider you as a candidate
2. People write application letters to introduce themselves and
present their qualifications to potential employers or admissions
committees. The key reasons for crafting an application letter
include:
• Personalization: It allows candidates to tailor their application
to a specific job or program, highlighting relevant skills and
experiences.
• Showcase Interest: It demonstrates genuine interest in the
position or opportunity, showing that the applicant has done
their research and is motivated to contribute.
• Highlight Qualifications: It provides an opportunity to
elaborate on key achievements or experiences that might
not be fully detailed in a resume or application form.
• Make a Strong First Impression: It offers a chance to make
a compelling case for why the applicant is a strong fit,
helping to capture the attention of the reader.
• Explain Gaps or Transitions: It can be used to address any
potential gaps in employment or changes in career direction,
providing context that might not be evident from a resume
alone.
3. To craft an effective application letter, follow these steps:
- Header: Include your contact information and the
recipient's details at the top.
- Salutation: Address the letter to a specific person if
possible, using "Dear [Name]."
- Introduction: Briefly introduce yourself and state the
purpose of the letter. Mention the position or opportunity
you're applying for.
- Body: Highlight your relevant skills, experiences, and
achievements. Explain how these align with the job
requirements or program criteria. Provide specific examples
where possible.
- Conclusion: Reiterate your interest, express enthusiasm,
and mention your desire for an interview or further
discussion.
- Closing: Use a professional closing, such as "Sincerely,"
followed by your name.
- Proofread: Ensure there are no errors and that the letter is
clear and concise.
