A job Application consists of two parts- the covering letter (appeal) and the bio-data/CV.

• Cover letter

The format for the covering letter is similar to the format of a Formal letter. It goes on like-

SENDER’s ADDRESS- The sender’s address is usually put on the top left-hand corner.

DATE- The sender’s address is followed by the date just below it. This is the date on which the letter is being written. It is to be written in expanded form.

RECEIVER’s ADDRESS- Whether to write “To” above the address depends on the writer’s preference. Make sure you write the official title/name/position etc of the receiver, as the first line of the address.

SUBJECT- Then we sum up the purpose of writing the letter in one line. This helps the receiver focus on the subject of the letter in one glance. It is important to underline the subject.

SALUTATIONS- This is where you greet the person you are addressing the letter to. Bear in mind that it is a formal letter, so the greeting must be respectful and not too personal. The general greetings used in formal letters are “Sir” or “Madam”.

BODY- This is the main content of the letter. It is either divided into three paragraphs or two paragraphs if the letter is briefer. The tone of the content should be formal. Do not use any flowery language. Another point to keep in mind is that the letter should be concise and to the point. And always be respectful and considerate in your language.

1. PARAGRAPH 1- Begin the body of the letter by mentioning the source (from where you got to know about the job) of information about the job (e.g., newspaper) along with the day, date and advertisement number. Also mention the post you wish to apply for.
2. PARAGRAPH 2- Here, you are supposed to offer your candidature by briefing about your qualifications, achievements, previous experiences and your strengths. In other words, this paragraph should be an answer to the question: ‘How are you the perfect candidate for the job?’.

Keep in mind that it should be to the point and clear. You should not sound boastful.

• PARAGRAPH 3- In this part of the body, you are supposed to make a reference to the photograph (passport-sized), Bio-data or curriculum vitae and other detailed documents that you have enclosed. You can also appeal for a one-on-one interview.

End the body on a promising note, e.g., Looking forward to your positive response.
COMPLIMENTARY CLOSE- At the end of your letter, we write a complimentary closing. The words “Yours Faithfully” or “Yours Sincerely” are used.
SIGNATURE- Here finally you sign your name. And then write your name in block letters beneath the signature. This is how the recipient will know who is sending the letter.
(NOTE- Mention the name given in the question paper. Do not mention your personal details.)

• Bio-data

After signing, you are supposed to mention the heading “ENCLOSURES” which will include the name of the documents and testimonials attached along with the cover letter. They may include the following-

1. Photograph (Passport-sized)
