Have you ever sent an email like this one in response to a job posting?

To: employer@job-postings_company1.ca

Subject: re: Job Application

Look at my resume and cover letter. It'll tell you all about me. I really want this job.

What's wrong with this message as it's currently written?

But what's lacking here is a degree of formality and detail. The message is written in casual language. And it makes the reader guess about which job you're applying for. The language and content need to be professionalized to a greater extent.

What? Even Emails Have To Be Formal?

During your job search - and afterward as well, once you're re-employed - sending proper emails is important for your career. Communication skills are valued at all levels of an organization. You need to convey information in ways that won't be misunderstood, and that represent a positive image of you (and your employer) to others.

In the world of work, quite often "you are what you write." This is nowhere more true than when submitting your resume and/or cover letter for consideration. Every impression counts. Your emailed message may be the very first thing a potential employer sees from you.

When "Casual" Causes Concerns

A hastily written, informal message like the one in the example atop this page, may cause employers to see you as amateurish or lazy. "If you don't even take time to present yourself in your best light within your job application," they might mutter to themselves, "and you force us to do extra work by having to guess about which job you're even applying for," they say with clenched teeth, "then what can we realistically expect once we bring you aboard?"

Luckily it doesn't take much to submit a better version of your message

You're applying for a specific job. To you it may the one that's front and center in your mind at this time. But the employer may be posting a number of different positions at once. They'll probably receive a large number of application emails, not just yours.

So make is easy for them to sort the incoming emails by letting them know which job you're after. In the Subject Line itself, concisely state the purpose of your email. Mention the job's title or a reference number that you saw in the advertised posting. You could write something like "Job Application Enclosed: Claims Adjuster, reference A47kj2w1."

This also applies to the top part of the message you'll type into the body of this email. You can begin with a header that simply repeats itself, as in "re: Job Application: Claims Adjuster, reference A47kj2w1."

Use "Business Formal" Language

Regardless of what you type in the email's body underneath your header, don't drop your guard and suddenly start using casual language.

At a minimum, you might try instead to turn the phrasing from our email example into the following:

Please take a moment to review my attached Application Documents:

- Customized Cover Letter

It would be a sincere pleasure to hear back from you soon to discuss this exciting opportunity.

[your first and last names, plus the phone number(s) you want to be contacted at, go here]

Formal language, identifying the job you're applying for, and stating which documents you've attached: is there anything you should do in the body of your emailed job application?

Some job seekers like to include a customized, more elaborate cover letter within the body of the email itself. This saves the reader from having to open your separate attachments into a different program.

Still, it may make sense to attach a fully formatted, fancy version of the cover letter along with the resume. This way if the employer wants printouts of "good copies" to pass around, they can do so quickly with minimal effort.

You could also try to find out the name and title of the person you'll be mailing your application to. This is not always necessary, though in higher level jobs it can help you stand out from the crowd. Which of course is something you want to do, when possible, so long as standing out presents you as more qualified or enthusiastic.

Job Application Email Example and Writing Tips

# data[].attributes.body
Tutorial

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
There are many ways to apply for a job: You may need to submit your application through an online system that the company has in place. For some jobs, particularly retail ones, you may still be able to apply in person, filling out an application by hand. One of the most common ways to apply for jobs today, however, is by sending an email job application letter through email.

Your email job application letter is a cover letter: This means that the intent of the email is to let the recipient know why you're writing, which job you are applying for, what your qualifications are for the job, and how you will follow up or how the recipient can get in touch with you.

The following is an example of an email message sent to apply for a job.

Subject: Adjunct Instructor Position - Joseph Q. Applicant
It was with much interest that I read your September 1st job posting on Craigslist for an Assistant Communications Director. Your description of the work responsibilities incumbent upon your next Assistant Director closely match my experience, and so I am excited to submit my resume to you for your consideration. In my position as an Assistant Communications Director for ABC Company, I wrote articles for the company website, managed the editing and posting of contributing articles, managed their social media presence, and wrote and sent out a weekly email newsletter to subscribers. I also implemented an automated email tool that grew their subscriber base by 40% within six months. While Assistant Communications Director for Assemblyperson Janet Brown, I researched, drafted and amended legislation, wrote press releases, and was responsible for office communications and correspondence. My resume is attached. If I can provide you with any further information on my background and qualifications, please let me know. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your consideration. Subject: Adjunct Instructor Position - Your Name It is with much interest that I read the job posting for the position of Anatomy and Physiology Professor at Middlebury University. I'm pleased to be able to submit my application for the position. I also believe my experience is a strong match for the responsibilities pertaining to this role. My most recent teaching position was at Amery University where I taught both anatomy and physiology as an adjunct professor. In addition, I served on two faculty committees and participated in a research project. I have attached my resume in this letter. Through it, I hope you will learn more about my background, education, achievements, and awards. If I can provide you with any further information, please let me know.I look forward to hearing from you about this opportunity. Thank you for your consideration.
As you can see from the example above, your email does not have to be lengthy. Here are a few tips for how to assemble your application letter:

Subject line: Since hiring, managers receive a lot of emails, make it easy for them to filter application emails. Include your name and the job title you are applying for in the message's subject line. If a job has been assigned a posting number (as happens on Craigslist), provide this as well.

Salutation: If possible, address your email to a specific person. Sometimes you can determine this by reviewing the company website or calling their front office to ask who is managing their job search. If a name isn't available, you can open with "Dear Hiring Manager," as in the sample letter above, or with the more formal, "To Whom It May Concern."

First paragraph: In the first paragraph of your letter, you'll want to explain why you're writing. Mention where you saw the job application, the date when it was posted, and whether it was presented on the company's website, posted on a job search board, etc. If you were referred by a friend or colleague, mention this here.

Middle paragraphs: This space in the letter is where you can make a pitch for your candidacy. Why would you be a good fit for the job? Highlight relevant jobs and responsibilities, as well as accomplishments. Make sure not to copy your resume directly.

Final paragraph: Use this space to thank the recipient for reading your email, and mention that your resume is attached. It is also the space to thank recipients for their consideration of your application; you can also mention when and how you will follow up.

Polite close: Use a polite close to sign off your letter, such as "Best" or "Sincerely." Then, type your full name.

Email Signature: You can also include your email signature, which is an easy way to provide contact information to recipients.

What Should a Job Application Email Look Like?

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
There are many ways to apply for a job: You may need to submit your application through an online system that the company has in place. For some jobs, particularly retail ones, you may still be able to apply in person, filling out an application by hand.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Although many employers require you to apply to a position via applicant tracking software, it's still fairly common to send a job application email instead. And when you send this email, your pitch had better be good - it is your 'foot in the door', after all, and you only get one chance to make a first impression.

HR professionals and hiring managers are often besieged by emails, so those that fail to grab their attention immediately are likely to be ignored. To ensure your job application email gets a response, follow these dos and don'ts.

Do: Write a great subject line. Many emails are read on smartphones, which may show only about 30 characters in the subject line, so the message must be as tightly conveyed as possible.

Include the word 'application', plus your name, the job title and any vacancy ID code, e.g., 'Linda Whitney, Application: account manager (33441)'. Add qualifications if the vacancy specifies them, e.g., 'Peter Davies BSc: Application, Pharmacist (4425)'. If you can market yourself briefly, do it, e.g., 'Application: Mary Evans, Experienced Occupational Therapist, vacancy 4431′.

Don't: be vague. Hirers search their inboxes looking for individual names, roles or job ID numbers, so a subject line that says just 'job application' or 'response to advertisement' risks not being found.

Do: Include the name of any mutual contact that referred you for the position. Put it in the subject line, e.g.: Janice Smith referral: Peter Golightly for Data Analyst job (4432).

Do: Address the hirer respectfully. Start with 'Dear', then the name of the person who is mentioned in the vacancy (if available). If there is no name given, try searching for the right contact on LinkedIn - if all else fails, you can always write 'Dear Sir or Madam'.

Don't: Start with 'Hi' or 'Hey'. This is not an email to a friend, so don't make the mistake of being over-familiar.

Do: State the basics in line one, e.g. 'Please find enclosed my application for the job of deputy manager, operations.' If you have been referred, start by saying it, such as 'Jennifer James, your former colleague at [company name] recommended I contact you about the vacancy for the XYZ position.'

Do: Market yourself. In line or paragraph two, state briefly why you are a good match for the vacancy. Note that this is not stating why you want the job - instead, it should be about why the employer should want you.

Say, for instance: 'I have had three years of experience in operations and recently completed a Diploma in Operations Management, so I think I can help [company name] establish your new department.' If you are in a sector where worth is judged by income generation, then mention how much money you have generated, e.g., 'I am an experienced business developer having brought in £150,000 of new business in the last 18 months.'

Don't: Regurgitate your whole CV, talk about how you think it is time to move up the career ladder (remember it's about how you can benefit them), or gush emptily about how much you love their company - it sounds insincere.

Do: Add a third line that is a call to action and gives your contact details, eg, 'To discuss how we might work together please call me on...' Give your mobile as well as a landline number.

Do: Sign off politely, using 'Yours sincerely'.

Don't: Send your job application email off immediately. First, check for spelling and grammar errors, and then return to the job ad to see if you have addressed the key points that the employer is looking for.

Do: Attach your CV, labelled with your first and surname and the term 'CV'.

Don't: Send it as a Word file, as these can be distorted by differing versions of Office. Avoid other formats such as HTML, BMP, EPS or ZIP files. If you are applying for a creative or tech job and need to send links to your work, such as videos or websites, include links in the main body of the job application email.

Do: Send it as a PDF, as most systems can open these.

Making a speculative application? Most of the same guidelines apply, but first, research the right person to approach (if necessary, you can call the company and ask. Sending emails to general mailboxes such as info@... can be doomed to failure.

The first line of your speculative job application email should explain why you are making the on-spec application, for example, 'I have read in the news that you are opening a new branch close to my home and recruiting new staff, so I am sending my CV as my experience as an operations manager may be useful to you.'

Are you in a hurry to get a job? Are you having a hard time finding a job and starting to feel discouraged? There are some relatively quick tasks you can do that will speed up the hiring process.

Here are 15 things you should know about job hunting that will help you find a new job fast. Some items on the list are little things that make a difference. Others are significant enough that they can make or break your job search. Take a look to see if there's anything you're not doing and give it a try.

15 Quick Tips That Will Help You Get Hired Fast

Save Time Job Searching by Using Advanced Search Options on Job Boards: All the major job boards, such as Indeed.com, SimplyHired.com, CareerBuilder.com, and Monster.com, have an "Advanced Search" option where you can search by keyword, location, a radius of a location, job title, company, type of job, date posted, and other options. Here's a list of the top 10 best job sites and tips for using Advanced Job Search options.

Search-and Apply-to Jobs You're Qualified For: Applying for every job you find isn't always a good idea. It simply isn't efficient. Instead, seek out jobs that match your qualifications. That way, you'll have a better chance of getting selected for an interview. Sending out random resumes and cover letters is just going to be a waste of time. Before you start job hunting, take the time to decide what type of job you're seeking.

Don't Stop Applying for Jobs While You Are Waiting to Hear Back From an Employer: The most likely outcome is that you'll get a lot of rejections before you land a job. Instead of getting discouraged, learn from your mistakes and keep applying until you get the right offer. Waiting to hear the results from your application or interviews will only extend the length of time your job search takes. Worst-case scenario, you'll be juggling multiple job offers. That's a good thing.

Create a Specific Cover Letter to Help Your Resume Get Noticed: You only have a few seconds to impress a hiring manager enough to select you for an interview. Hiring managers want to see what you can do for the company written in the first paragraph of your cover letter. Here's how to match your qualifications to a job and tips for how to write a cover letter.

Target Your Resume to the Job, Too: It's not just your cover letter. Your resume should be edited and tweaked, so it's as close a match to the job as possible. Otherwise, it may not get picked up by the applicant tracking systems companies use to screen resumes or the recruiter who reviews it.

You Don't Need to Include All Your Experience on Your Resume: Some job seekers put decades of work experience on their resumes. Unfortunately, that's not going to impress anyone. It dates you, it's too much information, and it may be too much experience for most job openings.

Include More Than Full-Time Employment on Your Resume: If you've been out of work, you don't want your resume to look like you haven't done anything since you were laid-off. There are other things besides your employment history you can use to bolster your resume.

Dress Like a Manager or a Successful Person in Your Profession: Maybe appearances shouldn't matter so much, but they do. The first few minutes of an interview are when you get to make that critical first impression. Be sure you're dressed appropriately for the type of job and company you're applying to. Here's appropriate interview attire for a variety of different jobs and work environments.

Be Yourself at the Interview: Rehearsed answers, fake smiles, and saying what you think the interviewer wants to hear instead of what you actually believe misleads the employer. Employers want to know who they're hiring, and that's the person they expect to show up for the first day of work. Get tips on showing your personality during a job interview.

Storytelling During a Job Interview Is an Excellent Way to Share Your Experience and Skills: One way to show the employer what you're actually like is to tell a story. When you're asked questions during a job interview, relay the specific skills and experience you have, as well as how you handled the situations you're asked about. The more concrete information you provide, the more the hiring manager will know how qualified you are.

Never Say Anything Bad About a Previous Employer: One of the most common interview mistakes is badmouthing your boss or co-workers. The first thing the interviewer is going to wonder is what you will say about their company when you're moving on.

Always Send a Thank-You Note After a Job Interview: It's important to followup after a job interview. It's a way to show your appreciation for being considered for the job. It's also a way to reiterate your interest and share anything you neglected during the interview.

Take Time to Network: It's an essential component of a successful job search. Most jobs are found through networking, whether it's online or in-person. You never know who can help you find your next position unless you tell your connections that you're looking for a job.

References Can Make a Big Difference in Getting Hired: References are important, and employers check them. Get recommendations from bosses, coworkers, clients, subordinates, and suppliers. Store them on sites like LinkedIn and share them whenever possible. If you're worried about getting a lousy reference from your supervisor, work on getting some personal references you can add to your credentials.

It's Acceptable to Apply for the Same Job More Than Once: You applied for your dream job, and you didn't hear anything back from the company. Later, you see the job posted again. A " do over" is fine, but be sure you've carefully matched your qualifications in your resume and cover letter to the job requirements. Also, check LinkedIn to see who you know. You might be able to get a referral the second time around. Here's how to find contacts at a company.

Polish Your Shoes Prior to Your Interview: This one's an extra, but yes, hiring managers do look at your shoes. If you don't have shoe polish, a leather or multipurpose cleaning wipe will work. It's important to look your best from head to toe!

Pay Attention to the Details: Job hunting can feel as though you're playing a multitasking game to try to keep up. There's so much you need to pay attention to when you want to impress a prospective employer.

Always Proofread Before Hitting "Send": Before you submit an application online or email a cover letter or thank-you note, make sure to read carefully for typos. In particular, check that you've spelled the company's and hiring manager's names correctly.

What is LinkedIn?

LinkedIn has been around for 15 years, and has grown to be the largest professional online networking site. LinkedIn has over 590 million users from people just starting out in their careers to those with established careers. LinkedIn lets you connect with professional networks and personal contacts. It's like other social networking sites but with the purpose of building your professional contact list. You can choose a basic free subscription or a premium paid subscription for different features. Recruiters and businesses also use LinkedIn to recruit potential employees and advertise job vacancies. If you're not sure if you need a LinkedIn account, read on for our tips on how to use LinkedIn to land a job.

Why should I have a LinkedIn account?

Here's our picks for the best ways to use LinkedIn to help you land a job:

Search and apply for jobs

Spreading your job search across different job boards increases your chances of landing a job. You will see different jobs advertised on different sites. LinkedIn has its own jobs board where you can search and apply for jobs directly through the site. Add this to your existing online job searches like jobactive and SEEK and you'll find more opportunities and increase your chances.

Network

Use LinkedIn to build your networks to find out about job opportunities, gain endorsements, or connect with people in your industry. Up to 80% of jobs aren't advertised, so using your networks to find out about the hidden job market can give you an advantage in your job search. There are different ways to build your LinkedIn network by:

Searching for people you already know using the search tool. For example, people you have worked or studied with.

Exporting contacts from your email.

Searching for special interest groups.

Using your connections to introduce you to their connections.

Searching for companies that you are interested in. For example, places you want to work.

Searching for hashtags that are relevant to your area of work or interest.

Complement your written resume

Most job applications still require a traditional resume, but LinkedIn can be a great way to add to this. Your LinkedIn profile can host additional information that you can't fit in your two-page resume plus you can list your LinkedIn URL on your resume. You can list your previous jobs, qualification, interests, volunteer work and accomplishments. While you can use your LinkedIn profile to apply for jobs, often recruiters will see your profile and reach out to you via the messaging function. By adjusting your settings, you can let recruiters know you're open to job opportunities. This will increase your chances of finding out about jobs that might suit you.

You can improve your chances of being approached by:

Uploading a photo of yourself (you'll have 11 times better chance of being viewed).

Adding relevant skills to the type of jobs you're applying for.

Writing a profile summary.

Proofreading for typos and grammatical errors.

Adding people to your network.

Keeping your profile up-to-date with your latest skills and experience.
