The Resume
Your resume is, in essence, your personality on paper. It creates a first
impression about you to the employer.
It is an outline of all you have to offer a new employer.
It presents your qualifications, background, and experiences in a way
that will convince a prospective employer that you are a qualified
candidate to fill the position. It promotes those traits you want the
employer to know you possess.
By including in the resume the qualities the employer is seeking in a
candidate, you can be confident your resume will capture the
employer’s attention.
The objective of the resume is to get you an interview.

Application Letter
Its purpose is to attract an employer’s attention and persuade her to
grant you an interview. This letter presents what you can offer the
employer. It is also an opportunity to demonstrate your skills and
personality. There are two types of application letter which are:
SOLICITED: It is sent in response to a help-wanted ad. It must be
composed with distinction because it will compete with other ones, and
it must refer to the ad and the specific advertised job.
UNSOLICITED: It is sent to a company for which you would like to work
even though you know of no particular opening. In this letter it will be
little competition. You can personally define the position you would like
to apply.

doesn´t fill out your needs or expectations, you should use this kind of
letter to refuse it. It should be courteous and discreet. In addition, it helps
to leave open the possibility of future employment.
Rejecting a Job Applicant

position in his company. A personal letter explaining specific reasons for
an applicant`s rejection is professional and preferable, but a form letter is
more often used.

new one. Probably you would experiment different feelings; however,
your letter must convey regrets. You may include the following:
1. State that the letter is your resignation, mentioning the date on
which you are leaving.
2. Express appreciation for your old job and/or regret at leaving.
3. Offer assistance with any work that you will be leaving undone or
with helping the person who will replace you.
You may mention a reason for leaving. Leaving a job on good terms is in
your best interest. This letter should be positive and brief.
Letters of Introduction
This letters are written to a business associate on behalf of a third person,
such an employee, customer, or client. It must explain the following
three points:
1. The relationship between you and the person being “introduced”.
2. The reason for introducing him to your reader.
3. What you would like the reader to do for him.
It is a combination of request and reference. It should be worded with
courtesy.
