The saying ‘the first impression is the always the last one’ fits aptly here. Your cover letter has to be really good since it will have a lasting impression on your prospective employer or the hiring agent. The look of the cover letter is very important since the hiring agent would then base his decision on whether you need to be called for an interview or not. Unattractive and unappealing cover sheets go down the bin, forget glancing through your other details like skills and work experience. The reason for this step motherly treatment is obviously the bad presentation of your cover letter. The presentation has to be really good and it should make the reader do business with you.

Even before beginning to get on the job of writing a cover letter, it is imperative that you understand the sole purpose behind writing the letter. With this aim in mind, you could take a plunge and write the application letter.

Be totally devoted and write the cover letter. It is not a formality you have to complete. People just write the letter thinking that they want to get done with this formality. If this is your attitude and approach, then your application would be the first one to take the place in the bind. Unless your application and cover letter are not properly structured and neatly presented, the remaining part of the entire process does not hold good.

The important thing which needs to be adhered to while writing the application letter is the reason for your writing this letter. Obviously, it is for getting an interview letter and then later to get you a job with the company. Once you have kept in mind these facts and drafted a well structured cover letter, the hiring agent would obviously be interested in reading other pages which describe your educational qualifications, work experience etc.

This implies you have crossed one hurdle. If the job which you have applied for calls for formality and conformity, then it is imperative that you stick to the basic format of application letters. In positions where creativity and independence are desirable attributes, you could go in for an essay type detailed description about you as a person and the qualities you have for the job you have applied.

The first sentence of your application letter should be a one line description of the reference to the advertisement. If it is through a newspaper, then state the details liked day and date and the name of the paper.

Briefly explain why you think you are the ideal candidate for the job. Make a comparison with your experience and qualifications and the job specifications so that the employer feels that you are best for the job. Don’t forget that there would be tons of applications and your application letter needs to be identified and selected.

Last but not the least; make a mention of various enclosures and credentials so that continuity is maintained through the whole document.

THE CRAFT

For every writer, there are two prisms through writing our words will be viewed. Readers expect us to be craftsmen. They trust we will have a fundamental grasp of the elements that constitute good writing. Researchers, for example, have found that sentences that exceed this ratio – 1 preposition for every 11 words – are poorly written. They sound first-grade-ish.  (“Syntactically immature” is what the experts call such writing.) The reader cannot flow through the sentence without encountering a verbal hiccup every few words.

Researchers have also found that sentences that contain more than 15 words cause the reader to go back and read the sentence again to be sure they have understood the meaning. Think about it – some of the most persuasive sentences of our time are short: “Just do it!” “Yes, we can!” “It’s the economy, silly!”

Additionally, the successful writer knows her craft so well that grammatical errors don’t appear in it.

Nor do clumsy phrases. Nor does a limited vocabulary.

But the successful writer knows both the technical matter and the techniques, has knowledge of the content but can also place it in the right context, has a message and can find the perfect medium in which to place it That’s where the art of writing comes into play.

THE ART

Our language has a million words, and is growing daily. Contrast that number to the number of words in the native tongue of Arubans: Papiamento has only 500 words. We English-speakers have so many choices with which to hook our readers. We have infinite combinations that can intrigue our fiction readers, can persuade our non-fiction readers.

DO:

—  Regard life as a experiment.

Write your most-important letters in three different ways and solicit input as to which is most effective.

—  Use audience-awareness to convince your reader. Consider what elements will be most appealing to your various readers. Use words that matter to them.

—  Remove barriers that may stand between you and others. Familiarity with their needs will help make that one-on-one connection.

DON’T:

—  Confuse persuasion with manipulation. Your efforts should yield mutually beneficial purposes.

—  Forget to consider the reader’s position. Most business people are busy. They appreciate communications worthy of their time.

—  Neglect the questions that might arise in the reader’s head. Have answers incorporated within your document or letter

“For free or not for free – that is the question?”

Whenever the ‘P’ word — PAYMENT — gets a mention, writers are frequently up in arms. There appear to be two camps of thought: those that think we should all write for free, ‘because it is our art’, and those who want to get paid what they are worth as a writer. Of course, you yourself, might fall somewhere in between where you prefer to get paid, but will write for free for good causes or if it is to promote yourself.

Recently, I queried a new national magazine and submitted three articles for the editor to peruse. She was looking for columnists as well as article writers. Within the hour an e-mail arrived in my mail box, [the fastest response I have ever had from an editor], to say that she loved one of my articles and wanted to publish it in the following month’s debut issue of the magazine.

Warning bells started to ring at her swift response.

After all, most of my magazine queries have taken days, weeks or even months for replies. And as any serious writer knows, magazines work months, not days, ahead of time. Not only did she want to publish my article, she wanted to work with me for a further four editions of the magazine.

Sounds fantastic, right? Not so right. The snag was she didn’t intend to pay me a single, solitary cent for my time, effort and expertise. It was a case of, ‘We’ll see how it goes and if we can pay you sometime in the future, then we will!” Well stuff that for a game of soldiers, which is almost what I told her, but not quite. Instead, I told her I thought that writers deserved to be paid and sent her a few helpful links so she could read up on why writers deserve payment.

Cheeky, on my behalf, I know, but I was spitting feathers at the time. I didn’t need the clippings that bad.

Now, all this is well and good, but when I pointed this out to one of my Yahoo writers’ groups, apart from having a cyber pat on the back from some of my contemporaries, I was flamed off list for daring to suggest writers should be paid.

We’re back to that art thing. I shouldn’t be surprised. I recently attended a writers’ workshop. One of the exercises was to write a poem or story in a short space of time. A writer sitting next to me, who I vaguely knew, came up with a fantastic poem off the top of her head. I said, “You are so talented. Have you been published anywhere?”

“No, certainly not!” she replied as if I had said something I shouldn’t.

Then I made the mistake of using the ‘P’ word. “You know, you could get published and PAID for poems like that.”

You’d think I’d hit her in the face with a wet fish. When she had got over the initial shock, she replied, “I couldn’t possibly take money for something I love.”

I just don’t get it, but then again neither did she. Are some writers so precious about their words that they feel it is degrading to sell them? When I told her about some of my own publications, I got the distinct impression she thought I was some sort of writing floozie spreading it around a bit, and horror of horror — for money, too!

You’ll know you’re being ripped off when:

1. You’re writing for free for a magazine that runs paid advertisements or that sells a subscription, products and/or services.

2. You’ve brought your expertise (teaching, counseling, nursing, computing skills, etc.) into the article and you’re still not offered payment.

3. Everyone else at the magazine is being paid. This includes the Internet provider, phone company, electric company, photographers, models, and editorial staff, right on down to the cleaners. Why should everybody else get paid and not you?

4. The magazine says they are giving you plenty of exposure, so why do you need to get paid?

5. Or, as one high profile website put it a couple of years ago when they suddenly stopped paying writers, ‘If you were learning to play golf you’d have to pay fees, so why should you expect to get paid for something you love doing?’

You’re not being ripped off when:

1. Your writing will help a charity or good cause close to your heart.

2. It will help further your career as a writer

It must look beautiful, but not sophisticated. Division of paragraphs has to be done carefully in such a way that one paragraph contains only one central idea.

Plagiarism is considered to be a severe threat to academic integrity. All educational institutions have taken adequate measures to ward off this dishonest tendency among students. A dissertation which showcases various skills of the students has to be written perfectly with zero percent plagiarism. A dissertation must exhibit the creative talents of students.
