AIMS/Stu-02/001 75 Brookfield way Little Hampton Near Borchester Borchestershire B07 8GH   Subject: Apply for IT Manager Post   Dear Sir/Madam   “WHY YOU ARE WRITING “ We would normally introduce in this opening paragraph the reason for our letter, referring to the advert and any reference number quoted. However, in addition to this, try to add some thing extra- perhaps by immediately introducing to the reader how much of a” fit” the role is and how interested you are in it? For example, Your recent advert in the evening Chronicle is of very great interest to me. As my CV indicates, I have the skills and experience required for the role, and the energy and enthusiasm to make a real success of it. WHAT YOU HAVE TO OFFER This is the section in which you can target yourself to the advert in question. Place this after the introductory paragraph that sets the scene This is the most important part of the letter. Use it to introduced your skills and experience against those highlighted in the advert Bullet points can be use to get effect and to make maximum impact You might also use some of the language from the advert to make it easier for the reader to see hoe closely you match their requirements through be careful that you don’t simply copy whole section of it! From the skills listed as necessary for this role, my experience has give me: 3 years exposure to customer service work, gained with in a very demanding call centre environment. The ability to quickly access customer needs and ensure that individual expectations are met and exceeded whenever possible. Excellent keyboards skills, and familiarity with a wide variety of software packages and telephony systems. REMEMBER THE SKILLS YOU HIGHLIGHTED HERE SHOULD MIRROR THOSE REQUIRED FOR THE ROLE WHAT DO YOU WANT TO HAPPEN NEXT? Most people use the concluding paragraph to simply “sign off” – “I look forward to hearing from you soon and I hope that my application is of interest to you”.  Use this section of the letter to “wow” the reader once more?  “ Thank you for your interest so far. I hope I have given the opportunity to explain at interview why I think I can succeed in this role and why I could therefore become a key member of your team. I look forward to hearing from you” Your (faithfully / sincerely – remember to use the correct one)  Mohammad Abaidullah  (And remember to sign your name)

I have worked closely with the IT Production Department and have been able to identify problems before they affected production deadlines.
