22. Dear Mr. Tucker Application for director I am writing to apply to be the new Director of the National Railway Museum. I am only 6 but I think I can do this job. I have an electrick train track. I am good on my train track. I can control 2 trains at once. I have been on lots of trains including Eurostar and some trains in France. I have visited the museum before. I loved watching the trains go round on the turntable. On the other side is a picture of me. Hopefully I can come and meet you for an interview. From Sam Pointon www.socialtrex.com
23. Cover Letter Keys Concise– Sam doesn’t waffle. A cover letter should be three to four paragraphs. Use your words wisely; make each one count. Tailored– Don’t use a template. Sam tailored his letter for the organization and position. A tailored cover letter indicates: research serious about the job, work ethic. Of course, find out who will be reading your letter. Why you? – After explaining why you want the job, make the connection between the position and your attributes, skills, and experiences. Carefully pick your top three reasons why you are an ideal candidate and elaborate briefly. Make an impression – Remember, a recruiter may scan hundreds of cover letters a day. Is yours ‘just another cover letter’, or does it stand out? Your aim is to make the recruiter pay attention. Proof read it. Again. And again, errors = BAD! Tone it down – no one likes an arrogant applicant. Don’t tell the reader that you’re an ideal candidate, SHOW them (remember visual). Sign 0ff strong – thank the reader for his consideration, ask for the opportunity to discuss the role further (i.e.an interview). Your cover letter is your application’s handshake. Make it count. www.socialtrex.com
