The document provides guidance on writing a letter of application for a job. It explains that the purpose is to get an interview for a position that is not interviewing on campus or when changing jobs. The letter should be addressed to a specific person for a specific position, highlight relevant qualifications that separate the applicant from others, demonstrate knowledge of the company/position, and refer to an enclosed resume while asking for an interview. An example order of points is given along with useful expressions for each: referring to the advertisement, describing work record and qualifications, present job duties and achievements, and reasons for applying. The letter should close by offering references and hoping to hear back soon.
