What should be included in a letter of intent for employment?

Answer by  patti (29325)

A letter of intent, when requested in a job posting, is the same as a cover letter. In the letter, you explain why you are interested in the job, the company/organization, and what you have to bring to the table.

Discuss why you are interested in the job, and then be specific about how your background, education, and work experience qualify you for that particular job.

Any educational degrees or programs completed. Provide related work experience or even jobs that aren't directly related but still gave you skills to take to other jobs. Your vision for your future should be concise and short and include that particular company.

Focus on three things when writing a letter of intent for employment: a very short history of your past experiences, why you are interested in working for the employer and how you heard of them, and finally why you think you will be a good fit for the company.

A letter of intent for employment should include a strong indication that you are interested in the employer. Make sure your letter shows that you have researched the company by indicating why you want to work for them.

Send in a resume, which will include your previous work experience, references that can tell the employer about your strong qualities, and make sure to let them know why you would be good for their company. It's all about selling yourself and you need to make yourself stand out compared to the other letters that are being sent in.

You should include in your intent letter, why you want to work for the company and what you will bring to the company if they choose to hire you. Put any strengths or skills/qualifications that would pertain to the job your applying for.
