Job application letter;

- A well organize application letter will trigger for you to be hired in the job you are applying. - Acts as an advertisement of oneself as it delivers reliable information about yourself, it should be convincing for the HR or the Personnel officer to go over your resume for further evaluation. - Enables one to provide information on his experience in respect to the company
- Save your time: apply to jobs you feel strongly that you a qualified for. If you think its just a shot in the dark, then, it most probably is and poised to miss its target. Take the time to think about the job while revising your cover note and resume to talk directly to the position. This may prove far more efficient than forwarding same applications to different openings.
- Length: while a three-page cover note will hardly be read, putting down three lines of text is grossly insufficient. A sparse cover note shows the applicant is inattentive, impatient or just incapable of projecting their skills in their first impression. I suggest one page for most jobs.
- Content: spending your words on your biographical details is unproductive. Some applicants start by saying when and where they were born, their village and state of origin and all the places they schooled starting from primary school.
