　　The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to "sell" yourself. 71 It should be simple,human,personal and brief without leaving out any necessary facts.
　　In writing a letter of application,keep in mind that the things a possible employer is most likely to want to know about are your qualifications(条件),your achievements and your aims. 72 If the first few sentences fail to win the reader's attention,the rest of the letter may not be read at all.Try to focus your opening remarks on the needs or interests of the employer not on your own need or desires.For example,instead of beginning with "I saw your advertisement in today's newspaper,"you might say " 73 "or "I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives use your product and why they like it."
　　 74 Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now aplying.College graduates looking for their first positions often ask "Which can I provide in a letter? Employers want experience - which,naturally,no beginner has." The answer is that everything you have ever done is experience.
