Applying OnlineEmail Correspondence Etiquette

If this is how you generally apply to a job posting then you can

kiss that job goodbye No employer has any interest in reading

any further What happened to general email etiquette Some

of you may be thinking ―Well I attached my reacutesumeacute and my

cover letter so what else is there to put in the email except for

see attached documentslsquo Did you ever think of writing a

brief message that starts with ―hello Would you want to

open an attachment of someonelsquos reacutesumeacute and cover letter

with no official message I DONlsquoT THINK SO

First impression is everything This means the very first

correspondence is critical it can make or break your chance to

get that job offer There are a few different ways you can apply

online Generally you will identify a job and within the job de-

scription there will be a contact name and email (ie Please

send a l l resumes and cover le t te rs to

shannonseaverumbedu) If this is the case then you want

to first create a new email type in the contactlsquos name and in

the subject line type in the exact title of the job youlsquore applying

for You want to make this easy for the reader and if you donlsquot

clarify your intentions and specify the job youlsquore applying for in

the subject line they may decide to delete the email You also

donlsquot want to assume the recipient is the primary reader The

contact person could just be the person designated to collect

all the reacutesumeacutes and cover letters so be as clear as possible

Here is an example of the right way to apply on line in this

case

This is perfect but this is not a cover letter and if you think it

is then I suggest you make a visit to the Office of Career

Services located in the Campus Center 1st Floor Suite 1300
