Dear [name of contact]
In the first paragraph you should briefly explain who you are and why you are writing to them. Name the position you are applying for and where you saw the position advertised. While it’s fine to start this paragraph with ‘I’, try not to start every paragraph in the same way.
Explain why you think you are qualified for the position, emphasising how your previous experience and transferable skills make you ideal for the role. Mention your most important qualifications (for example ‘I have just graduated from a Bachelor of Business Administration’) and what you think you would bring to the company. If the job advertisement lists selection criteria, this is the place to say how your skills and experience meet the criteria they’re looking for.
In the third paragraph, explain why you would like to work for this particular company, showing that you have done research regarding the position.
Lastly, politely request that they consider your application, conveying your appreciation for their time.
Yours sincerely
[Signature]
