    Job Application Format for CBSE Class 12

    A JOB APPLICATION consists of two parts- the covering letter (appeal) and the
    bio-data/CV.

     Cover letter

    The format for the covering letter is similar to the format of a Formal letter. It goes on like-
    SENDER’s ADDRESS- The sender’s address is usually put on the top left-hand corner.
    DATE- The sender’s address is followed by the date just below it. This is the date on which
    the letter is being written. It is to be written in expanded form.
    RECEIVER’s ADDRESS- Whether to write “To” above the address depends on the writer’s
    preference. Make sure you write the official title/name/position etc of the receiver, as the
    first line of the address.
    SUBJECT- Then we sum up the purpose of writing the letter in one line. This helps the
    receiver focus on the subject of the letter in one glance. It is important to underline the
    subject.
    SALUTATIONS- This is where you greet the person you are addressing the letter to. Bear
    in mind that it is a formal letter, so the greeting must be respectful and not too personal. The
    general greetings used in formal letters are “Sir” or “Madam”.
    BODY- This is the main content of the letter. It is either divided into three paragraphs or two
    paragraphs if the letter is briefer. The tone of the content should be formal. Do not use any
    flowery language. Another point to keep in mind is that the letter should be concise and to
    the point. And always be respectful and considerate in your language.
    I: PARAGRAPH 1- Begin the body of the letter by mentioning the source (from where you
    got to know about the job) of information about the job (e.g., newspaper) along with the day,
    date and advertisement number. Also mention the post you wish to apply for.
    II: PARAGRAPH 2- Here, you are supposed to offer your candidature by briefing about your
    qualifications, achievements, previous experiences and your strengths. In other words, this
    paragraph should be an answer to the question: ‘How are you the perfect candidate for the
    job?’.
    Keep in mind that it should be to the point and clear. You should not sound boastful.
    III: PARAGRAPH 3- In this part of the body, you are supposed to make a reference to the
    photograph (passport-sized), Bio-data or curriculum vitae and other detailed documents that
    you have enclosed. You can also appeal for a one-on-one interview.
    End the body on a promising note, e.g., Looking forward to your positive response.
    COMPLIMENTARY CLOSE- At the end of your letter, we write a complimentary closing.
    The words “Yours Faithfully” or “Yours Sincerely” are used.
    SIGNATURE- Here finally you sign your name. And then write your name in block letters
    beneath the signature. This is how the recipient will know who is sending the letter.
    (NOTE- Mention the name given in the question paper. Do not mention your personal
    details.)
    Bio-data

    After signing, you are supposed to mention the heading “ENCLOSURES” which will include
    the name of the documents and testimonials attached along with the cover letter. They may
    include the following-
    I: Photograph (Passport-sized)
    II: Bio-data or CV
    III: Copies of certificates
    IV: Any other
