写一封恰当得体的求职信可能是你在寻找工作的时候遇到的最棘手的问题之一。在求职 的过程中，你也许是平生第一产供销撰写一封专业水平的信件。因此，你所面临的问题 很多，其中包括：在许多十分重要但是对你来说又不是非常熟悉的场合下，如何去申请 一个职位;如何表示出你的满意;如何接受或拒绝对方给予的条件等等。
简明突出你的相关实力，即为什么你比别人更适合这个位置; 强调你所受过的培训、你的经历、技能和成就; 结尾段落中提出你的进一步行动请求，这里你可以建议如何进一步联络，留下可以随时联系到你的电话或地址。当然如果能对阅读者表示感谢，效果会更好，以我们的经验，现在许多公司招聘任务是十分繁重的，招聘人员每天要阅读大量的简历，一句关切的问候会给人留下很深的印象。
写求职信的注意事项：
求职信要短，但一定要引人入胜，记住你只有几秒钟吸引你的读者继续看下去。在求职信中要重点突出你的背景材料中与未来雇主最有关系的内容。通常招聘人员对与其企业有关的信息是最敏感的了，所以你要把你与企业和职位之间最重要的信息表达清楚。
言简义赅，切忌面面俱到。求职信的功用只是为你争取一个参加面试的机会，你不要以为凭一封求职信就可以找到一份你满意的工作，而且这种错误的心态会使你写的求职信罗罗嗦嗦。招聘人员工作量很大，时间宝贵，求职信过长会使其效度大大降低，1992哈佛人力资源研究所的一份测试报告的数据也证明了这一点，即一封求职信如果内容超过400个单词，则其效度只有25%，即阅读者只会留下对1/4内容的印象。 不宜有文字上的错讹。
一份好的求职信不仅能体现你清晰的思路和良好的表达能力，还能考察出你的性格特征和职业化程度。所以一定要注意措辞和语言，写完之后要通读几篇，精雕细琢，切忌有错字、别字、病句及文理欠通顺的现象发生。否则，就可能使求职信“黯然无光”或是带来更为负面的影响。 切忌过分吹嘘。从求职信中看到的不只是一个人的经历，还有品格。
针对性和个性化让你的求职信从数百封的信件中“脱颖而出”。不少人事经理反映，现在求职信中最常见的问题是“千人一面”。的确，网络给求职提供了更多的方便，但面对着互联网上成千上万的职位，有的求职者采用了“天女散花”式发求职信的方式，事实上它的命中率很低，结果不仅是“广种薄收”都达不到，而是多以“广种无收”告终。
原因很简单，这种千篇一律、没有任何针对性的求职信，招聘人员看的太多了。此时，针对性已成为求职信奏效与否的“生命线”。另外，个性化也很重要。有的求职信没有任何豪言壮语，也没有使用任何华丽的词汇，却使人读来觉得亲切、自然、实实在在。 在求职信正式发送之前，给身边的人看一下。 这也是求职信撰写中一个重要技巧，目的是避免歧义的产生，让求职信更好的传达出你所要传达的讯息。
