The letter applying for a job, which comes with am updated resume, seeks to gain the
attention of the head of the Human Resources Department of the company being approached for
an available position. This type of letter highlights the contributions and skills an applicant can
bring to the job/post. It may be helpful to analyze the job as well as the company, noting the
assumed needs and requirements while trying to determine the most important skills the
employer may be looking for.
The letter should address how the applicant will be able to meet the employer’s needs. The
applicant should take the initiative to find out the specific name to whom the letter should be
addressed. The letter should also be concise, and should not be cluttered with so many personal
details. After all, it is a cover letter with an attached resume, not an autobiography.

When looking at promising work prospects in a foreign country, a letter applying for a
visa to work in that country is the proper documentation to proceed to earn money legally.
While permission to work & earn is built into visas in some countries, in most other countries
you have to formally request for a work visa. Have the necessary documents/requirements ready
and write a polished letter.
While the application letter need not be embellished and must go straight to the point, it must
still be impressive. As much as possible, there shouldn’t be any mistakes in the documentation,
so proofread your letter for lapses in grammar or errors in spelling and punctuation. Show a good
command of English in your writing.
Let’s say you have a standing job offer in Canada and you have your passport plus a letter from
your future employer in the host country ready, the only thing you have to concentrate on next is
to write the letter applying for an international work visa. The completed application showing
that the requirements of the host country’s regulations are met will speak for itself.
In some cases, such as when you’ve worked out an internship with a company abroad, the
company can assist in arranging a work visa for you. Here is a sample letter applying for a visa
to work in a foreign country:

Dear Sir/Madam:
Greetings!
I am applying for a temporary work visa. I have a one-year job offer from The Sutton Place
Hotel in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I am planning to join the company as Assistant Front
Office Manager. Based on my educational background and experience, The Sutton Place Hotel
has found me ideally suited for this position.
Rest assured that I shall respect the conditions that apply to temporary working residents. In the
meantime, I continue to hope that you will be able to grant me a work visa.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Judy Cordova
Application for Admission into a University
August 2nd, 2010 | Published in Application Letter
Writing an application letter or what some call a Letter of Intent for College or Graduate
School is a simple correspondence that delves into personal qualities, accomplishments and other
reasons why a person is among those best suited to pursue studies in a particular school.
Most schools require an application essay (where the applicant may relate a brief human interest
story highlighting his/her strengths, skills, or passion), or a simple letter of intent that also cites
the qualities and accomplishments that make the student-applicant a good match for the school
applied in.
I am writing this letter to express my interest for the Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics at
The Pennsylvania State University.
If I were to choose one word to describe myself, it would have to be independent. At the age of
five, my parents divorced, and I was left in the care of my grandparents. It was one of the turning
points in my life that hastened my maturation. I learned to think and act independently. All the
challenges I experienced strengthened my resolve to improve myself.
I consider myself a diligent student and voracious reader. I read news magazines and journals for
relevant news updates. I have a strong background in Mathematics and Science, excelling in
subjects such as Calculus, Algebra, Probability and Statistics. I believe that Mathematics and
other subjects such as Computer Science and Marketing, which also appeal to me, can be useful
tools to the modern economist. I look forward to putting various skills to work. I believe that to
be an effective economist, one has to cultivate as many skills as possible, including good
interpersonal relations and marketing know-how.
I acknowledge the fact that most learning takes place outside the classroom. I feel that the
practical skills I have gained from extracurricular activities and volunteer work – like taking part
in the fundraising campaign for victims of the devastating earthquake in Sicuan Province of
China – may be put to good use.
I believe that with the distinguished faculty and state-of-the-art facilities of The Pennsylvania
State University, I can fully develop my potentials and chart my chosen career path. I hope you
will take a favorable decision regarding my admission to Economics undergraduate program of
Pennsylvania State University.
An application for a grant is correspondence that seeks to obtain the interest and
approval of a prospective benefactor, usually an established company or institute. The company
oftentimes seeks to plow back earnings to the community and uphold its commitment to
corporate social responsibility. In this type of letter, the noteworthy projects and core activities of
the organization seeking to obtain a grant are indicated.
The letter of application for a grant may request for materials and/or funding, and is usually
signed by the requesting organization’s director or operations coordinator. Such a letter must be
complete and carefully thought out. It needs to include information the timeline for projects and
activities that will be supported by the grant.

Greetings.
We are a child sponsorship organization catering to the needs of disadvantaged children in Metro
Manila and Bulacan, Philippines. Children International Philippines – Abot Kamay, Inc. has
been in existence since 1990, and we aim to help empower needy children by providing them
with educational opportunities that will help them overcome the vicious cycle of poverty. We are
writing to request for a $50,000 grant to assist the educational needs of children hailing from the
poorest of the poor in the communities that we serve.
The grant will be highly beneficial in the construction of much-needed classrooms and the
installation of personal computers in Metro Manila, Caloocan, and Bulacan. Some 5,000 to 7,000
poor but deserving students, whose schooling is supported by Children International, will be the
main benefactors of this school project.
We laud your organization for awarding grants, through your foundation. It will surely go a long
way in extending help and empowering many poor people in depressed communities across the
world.
We are sending you our organization’s five-year plan, and we hope you will consider the poor
children that we sponsor among your grant beneficiaries. For further information about our
organization, kindly visit our website.

Specific examples to support the personal qualities that the letter-sender claims to have are
essential. It is also very useful to research specific information about the scholarship provider,
along with the various things it may be looking for in the applicants. Write the letter of
application for scholarship in conversational style, and maintain a courteous tone. Ensure also
that the letter is free of typographical and grammatical errors and spelling mistakes.

I recently learned about your company’s Porsche scholarship program for young technically-
oriented individuals aspiring to be part of Porsche’s worldwide dealership network as Porsche-
certified mechanics. I belong to the recent batch of graduates of the Don Bosco Technical
Institute Manpower Skills Training Center. As you well know, the center has long been
providing car companies in the Philippines with mechanics equipped with basic automotive skills
combined with passion for work. I dream to be a world-class mechanic someday. I believe I
would be an ideal candidate for a scholarship award.
I look forward to hearing back from your office to complete the process. In the meantime, I have
attached my resume with this letter. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and the
PGA Cars Scholarship Committee for supporting college-bound students with an opportunity for
financial assistance through your scholarship program. Enclosed you will also find my
application form, high school transcript, letters of recommendation, and other pertinent
information.
Thank you for taking time to read this letter of application for scholarship.

The letter of application to study in a foreign university states the reasons why the
applicant is interested in pursuing a specific field of study, and also why a particular school has
been chosen. The main qualities and traits, educational background, and goals of the applicant
are also highlighted in the letter.
The letter should focus on explaining the applicant’s interests and other information that will
show that he/she is a good fit for the school.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I look forward to being given the opportunity to hone my existing skills in the US, and pave the
way for the advanced practice of social work, in collaboration with key healthcare organizations,
clinics, government agencies, and other entities, in my homeland.
In the meantime, allow me to express a few things about myself and the circumstances that have
led me to pursue a noble profession as social worker. I personally believe that the ability to
render social work is a gift. Not all people are cut out to totally devote themselves in the service
of the needy, or to work in a private firm with a social work aspect. My interest in being of
service to others through social work was triggered during my younger years. I grew up realizing
how there is no committed group or individuals championing the needs of this marginalized
sector in my country.
In March 2003, I will be graduating from the University of the Philippines with a Bachelor’s
Degree in Electrical Engineering. I am writing to explore the possibility of employment as a
Control Systems Engineer at your Pasig facility.
Early in my coursework at UP, I seriously began considering future employment with Samsung
Products Inc. We use a number of your products in our laboratory work, and their design,
precision and reliability are impressive. More recently, however, I noted in a professional
computing journal that you are undertaking a new project to apply microcomputers in automatic
control systems. Many of my electives were in the fields of control systems and computers, and
I have worked for two summers in microcomputers applications. I believe that I am well
qualified to begin working on your new project; I know that it is directly related to my interests.
The enclosed resume details my educational background and experience. I will be in the Pasig
area on the first week of January and I could be available for an interview, if convenient. In the
meantime, if you need any further information, you may contact me at 047.791.2991. I look
forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely yours,
Jayson Andaya
