Pauline Said:

how should i write the letter of interest, typed or handwritten?

We Answered:

Type your letter of interest. NEVER send a handwritten letter of interest... although you are correct that it seems more personal, it is NOT PROFESSIONAL. BUT!! Always send a handwritten thank-you after an interview. Know too that many human resource people will evaluate your handwriting in your thank-you, as well as your attention to detail in your letter. IF your handwriting is hard to read, sloppy, childish.... this all means something to the person who will be doing the hiring.You should use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Do not discount these things... your resume WILL be scrutinized to the fullest. Put your best foot forward... on paper as well as in your interview.

you should summarize the skills, your interests, what you will add to the department and why you want to change from the current department (especially since this sounds like a lateral move)

How do I write a letter of interest?

We Answered:

It's basically a letter that tells you why you are interested in the job position and why you are qualified and why you should get the job. Like you said, what traits you have that will benefit you for that position. But mainly it's why you are interested. Not just like more money and blah -- but I've always liked taking charge and making customers happy -- gives me a sense of self satisfaction -- etc. Good luck.

How can I write a letter of interest or an interests resume?

We Answered:

A letter of interest is often called a cover letter and is structured as follows:
- The Greeting:Eg. Dear Ms. Pat Smith
- Make the Connection:Eg. Your advertisement today in the Small Town Gazette for a Management Trainee Position greatly interests me.
- The Call to Action: Eg. At your convenience, I look forward to meeting you as soon as practicable. I have made myself available for interview next week between Monday and Thursday from 2pm to 6pm. You can contact me on 9755 0841 at anytime.
-The Sign-Off: Eg.
Sincerely,
(your signature)
"Your Name"
Encs. (Resume Attached)

You can even add an attention-grabber and the knock-out punch!
