Sample Application Letter

 

The job cover letter sample format below can be used as a guide to create your own cover letter. Send a job cover letter whether you are networking, cold calling or applying to advertised positions. A job cover letter is not a summary of your resume and it doesn't replace a resume.  
  • Each job cover letter should be tailored for the position and company you are applying to.

  • A job application cover letter should be a brief and simple one page letter..

  • Address each job cover letter to a specific person. If only the person's title is indicated in the job advertisement, phone the company & ask for the person's name. It will show that you went through the extra trouble to find the person's name.

  • You can prepare a general job cover letter, similar to the job cover letter sample format below, then edit it for each specific job.

    I have many years of experience in engineering & supervision of designers & drafters. I have a positive can do attitude & I work well under pressure.

    I am available to meet with you at a time that's convenient to you. I will call you in 3 days to set up a time.

    Sincerely,
