Job Application
POINTS TO REMEMBER:
1. The cover letter looks broadly like any Business Letter (Placing order/complaint etc.).
2. Ensure that the main body of the cover letter (second paragraph) focuses on soft skills. Soft skills
refer to non-technical skills that elaborate your personality type and help the employer understand
how you work or interact with your co-workers. Hence you may mention qualities like
communication, creativity, leadership, attention to detail, adaptability etc.
3. Do not waste information given in the biodata by repeating it in the cover letter. For example, you
may mention that you have previous work experience, but details like the number of years and the
name of the company must be added as a part of the biodata only.
4. Ensure that you add at least two relevant references. These may be people you have worked for in
the past (if you are experienced) or your teachers (if you are a fresher).
5. Enclosures may also include your passport sized photographs.
