教你如何写英文简历和工作申请

Introduction
This is the most important part of the letter. You have just a few seconds to make a strong positive impression on your reader. Choose each word with extreme care. 1) Tell who you are and why you are writing. I am writing in response to your advertisement in the Wisconsin State Journal for an Engineer. 2) If you are responding to an ad, tell the reader where you saw it--they may have run different ads in different places. I am interested in applying for the sales representative position recently advertised in The New York Times. If you learned of a job opening from a friend or colleague, mention this contact in your letter. My Inferential Differential professor, Calvin MacTavish, suggested that I write you regarding the opening you have for a Computer Engineer. 3) If you are not responding to a specific job opening, explain what you have to offer the employer.
Tone
write in a voice that is professional, warm, and somewhat formal. Try reading it out loud to hear how it sounds before you send it. 1) Avoid being too "cute" or making inside jokes 2) Show confidence in yourself without sounding arrogant, brash, or overconfident Don't be shy about telling your readers how good you are. Couch it in terms of what you can do for them and for their organization. Remember: you know you need them, but they need to see why they need you.
3. Write a letter in about 100 words to apply for a scholarship from a foreign university. Do not sign your own name at the end of your letter, using “Liu Fang” instead.
Conclusion
Always conclude by asking the reader to do something. State specifically what you hope your reader will do: set up an interview, send you an application form, etc. Be careful not to sound too demanding or insistent. Let your reader know where you can be reached. End with a goodwill statement:
As an employee at Sears, Roebuck in Provo, Utah, I have performed various duties from receiving clerk to cashier to candidate for management trainee. I believe that my supervisor there (see the enclosed resume) will tell you that I was a dependable, conscientious worker. My part-time work of approximately 25 hours a week enabled me to pay the major part of my college expenses. In addition to education and experience, Mr. Levy, my college activities have prepared me to work well with people. As senior vice president in charge of recruiting for my professional fraternity, I organized a number of educational and social meetings for prospective members. During the time I served as chairman of recruiting, we pledged more men and women than we had for the previous three years. Besides the qualifications mentioned, I would bring to your bank a desire to succeed and a willingness to work hard. Please look over the enclosed resume, which provides more details about my background. If you think I could serve First Security in an entry level position, please call me. I will arrange to come in for an interview at your convenience. Yours very truly, （Signature） John Alexander Enclosure
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your consideration. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about my qualifications or training.
