【写法指要】
求职信（Letters of application for a position）是应聘者向招聘单位的主管投寄的书信。写这种信的目的是为了让招聘单位了解你的学历、经验、能力、专长、成果、愿望等。所以，写信时要尽量向对方表现你的长处，以便给人一个好的印象，获得面试的机会。
写求职信应注意以下几点：
1）首先要开门见山说明申请理由，即见广告而应聘、或经熟人介绍，或为了专业对口，或为了调回家乡等。不要先写个人情况。这一点与汉语书信的写法不同。
2）概括本人学历、经历和特点，表明能胜任此项工作。但切忌夸大、吹嘘。
3）尽量说应聘部门的好处。不要损害他人，如批评原雇主等。否则对你申请工作有害无益。
4）不要申请你不能胜任的工作，而应申请熟悉的、能干得好的工作。
5）不要自贬。写求职信不是谦虚或虚伪的场合，你低估自己别人也会瞧不起你。
6）求职信一般是写给不熟悉的人的，所以要用正式文体和格式写；语言要简单、明白，不要卖弄学问，用一些别人看不懂的词句。
