写英文求职信的细节问题-1

　　写求职信的目的在于获得职位，不过，现在公司的HR是很少只看求职信就决定雇用的。一封求职信无论如何文辞并茂，令人心动，公司HR主管不见到这个人的外表是不会给予工作机会的。因此，求职信的实际目的在于获得面谈的机会。

　　一般求职信常用语句

　　求职信的第一段说明写信的目的，有些专家认为不宜用分词子句。如用下面的句子做开头，因为这样的句子被人用得大多，显得陈腐，失去特点。

　　Replying to your advertisement …… Answering your advertisement …… Believing that there is an opportunity …… Thinking that there is a vacancy in your company …… Having read your ad ……

　　再比较下列三句。(1)句较差，经过修改后(2)句显得较恰当。

　　A：(1)Replying to your recent advertisement in the Boston Evening Globe, I wish to apply for the position of sales manager……

　　　 (2)In applying for the position of sales manager I offer my qualifications, which I believe will meet your exacting requirements.

　　B：(1)I believe after reading your advertisement in this morning's Journal that you have just the opportunity I am looking for.

　　　 (2)your advertisement in this morning's Journal for an adjustment manager prompts me to offer you my qualifications for this position.

　　C：(1) Having read your advertisement in the New York Times for an accountant, I thought you might be interested in my application.

　　　 (2)In your advertisement for an accountant, you indicated that you require the services of a competent person, with thorough training in the field of cost accounting. Please consider me an applicant for the position. Here are my reasons for believing I am qualified for this work.
