LET’S MAKE AN APPLICATION LETTER

Buah kedondong, buah durian. Annyeong, sang pejuang masa depan! 

Today I learned about making a job application letter. For grade 12 this material is important as a shadow for making a job application letter after graduation later. Especially for students who want to work immediately after graduation.

So, today I want to share how do you make an application letter? But before that, let's first understand what a job application letter is. Come on, study together!

Application Letter 

1.     Description

Cover letter or application letter is an official letter made by an individual addressed because it requires a job that is sent to an agency/company to find work. The letter provides the hiring manager with important information that describes your skills, passion, experience, and educational background.

2.     Example

 

3.     Structure

a.       Heading

Is the beginning of the letter or the head of the letter. This section consists of:

·         Application contact details, which contain name, address, telephone number and email.
·         Recipient contact information, which contains the name and position of the recipient, as well as the name and address of the company.
·         Date of writing the letter.

 

b.       Opening greetings

Contains opening greetings in formal language. Usually in this section we write the word 'Dear' which is then followed by the recipient's name and a comma (,).

 

c.       Introductory Paragraph

This section is the opening paragraph which contains an explanation that you are applying for a particular job or position at the company you are aiming for along with the reasons you are applying for that position. You can mention what made you interested in applying for the position.

 

d.       Highlighting Paragraphs

As the name implies, this section is the most important part, aka the highlight of your cover letter. This section is the core paragraph that contains the qualifications and special abilities you have which are of course related to the job you are applying for. For example, you are applying for the position of Programmer, well, you can explain how far your skills in programming are in this section.

 

e.       Closing Paragraphs

Closing Paragraph is a closing paragraph that contains a thank you to the company or recruiter for their consideration of the application you sent.

 
f.        Complementary Close

This section contains closing greetings. In this section you can explain that you hope to be able to discuss further about the job you are applying for through an interview with the recruiter.

 
g.       Signature 

Finally, you can close your letter with your signature and full name.

 

So, after reading the material above, you must already know what a job application letter looks like. You must also understand the structure in the letter, so now let's try to practice making your job application letter.

 

That's all for today's material, I hope it's useful. Thanks for taking the time to stop by my blog. See you.
