5. IMPORTANT POINTS :
• Applications for jobs are written in a very formal,
precise and to-the-point fashion. A biodata is
enclosed to help the applicant focus on her/his
qualifications and skills.
• While the forwarding letter has the same format as
an official letter, a biodata or curriculum vitae is
written in a standardized format.
• While stressing on one’s qualities, it is essential to
avoid either bragging or being ingratiating.
