A. Career Correspondence
Where are job search letters necessary? Quite often. First, there are cover letters that
accompany your resumes. There are also networking letters, prospecting letters, follow up
letters after the interview and finally the acceptance letter. Let’s begin with one of the most
important pieces of correspondence, the cover letter.
1
1. The introductory paragraph, in which you apply for the position, giving its title and how
you learned about it.
2. The middle paragraph, which references your resume and sells you by mentioning your
key attributes or traits.
3. The closing paragraph, which ask for an interview and indicates te follow-up you will do.
