26. B. Speculative Letter
• Tailored to a specific organization
• Addressed to a named individual
27. The Speculative Letter
Should be clearly structured to cover:
• the kind of work you are looking for;
• why you want to work for this organization in
particular;
• why you are suitable;
• highlighting your relevant skills, experience and
personal qualities from your Resume.
Remember to sound positive and enthusiastic
28. Targeting organizations
When should I use this approach?
Try this with organizations that
You would really like to work for – Let them know
about you
Use recruitment agencies or word of mouth to fill
vacancies
Don‘t have to advertise because they receive so
many speculative applications
29. Shortlist organization(s)
Focus on
• what kind of positions they have that are of interest
to you
• what their requirements are in terms of qualifications,
work experience and skills
• why they interest you as a potential employer
• finding out who you should approach within the
organization.
30. How?
• Research the job
Check out what the job you'd like actually entails. Use
careers information, web searches, Blogs, recruitment
literature, job advertisements and job descriptions.
• Analyse your skills
Analyse your skills, experience and personal work
requirements to be sure they match what is required to
do the job.
31. Contact your chosen
organization(s)
• Finally, you need to write a speculative letter to
accompany your CV and send it to the employers you
have decided to target.
• Indicating that you know something about the company
shows that you are interested in the employer.
32. Follow up!
If you don't hear from them, wait 5 working days,
then follow up with a telephone call.
Ask if they have received your letter and CV
and ask to discuss its content further.
33. Writing
The application letter –
In short
Be Clear - Content
Check Grammar & Spelling
Edit
Proofread 100x or
Let Someone Else Proofread For You

your instinct, and the experience as well,
