Some children's email topics are funny, such as "application" and "intern application" "Application"? What are you applying for? "Intern application"? The grammar is all wrong. Since hr has to read countless resumes a day, it is best to indicate your name, school, major, position you are applying for, and the number of days you can work in a week. Anyway, how can hr see clearly? When Hr screens resumes, it will first set some basic screening conditions, such as major, grade and the number of times you can work in a week. If these conditions are not specified, hr will click on the email to view the contents of your resume. It's okay to submit your resume. My brain will explode after reading too much. Who wants to click? Patience is ok (I am patient), but patience is not good. Delete it directly (sometimes I will do the same when it is too late). If you delete it directly, no matter how good your ability and excellent your past internship experience are, it will not help. It's a pity ...
Keyword 2: applied position
It is important to write clearly what position you are applying for. The company will recruit several positions at the same time, even if it is not at the same time, it is reasonable to write clearly the position you want to apply for. I once met several children who wrote in emails: "I want to apply for the position offered by your company" or "I am very interested in the position advertised on the Internet" ... OMG, which position do you want to apply for? I am a kind person. In this case, I will open the attachment to see what major the child studied and what his previous internship experience was, and then judge "Oh! ! It turned out that he wanted to apply for this position, probably because he wanted to apply for this position. " When I'm in a bad mood, I just delete this resume. Even if you don't write down the position you applied for clearly, Hr has no reason to guess your mind. Therefore, students must remember that the position they apply for must be clearly written in the cover letter.
Keyword 3: Do you want to add attachments to your resume?
My feeling is: yes, and paste the contents of your resume in the body of the email, which is also convenient for hr to read your resume. Some children didn't have a word in the text, so they sent it directly as an attachment, so I deleted it directly ... Some children wrote a very good cover letter, that is, they put their resumes in the attachment, and they had to double-click to open them. If the computer is slow, it will be anxious and restart, which will reduce work efficiency and make people angry ... so, it is best to put your resume in the text.
At this time, some students may want to ask, if you put your resume in the text, the exquisite format set in word will be completely out of order. In fact, I didn't know how to solve this problem before. I changed it again and again in the text, and the effect was not very satisfactory. After reading so many job emails, I found that some students are really smart: save the whole resume as a picture and paste it, so that you can keep the format of the original word (you can cut the picture with snagIT, because sometimes a page in word can't be displayed on the screen, you can take a screenshot of the whole page with SnagIT); In addition, some people are skilled, just like using tables to edit web pages in frontpage. They also use tables in the body of emails, so the format is not easy to get confused, but it may be a bit troublesome. ...
Keyword 4: What is written in the article?
In fact, sometimes hr will pay more attention to this cover letter. Some children simply said, "Hello, I am a graduate student of * * University. Attached is my resume. Please refer to. Thank you. I look forward to your reply. " This kind of cover letter has no characteristics and is not easy to shine.
Here I take a cover letter written by Feng Tongxue for your reference. I have hidden the name of the school, hoping not to invade this classmate's personal privacy.
Leaders:
Hello!
I am a graduate student majoring in XX in XX University, and graduated from XX. I saw on XX that your company is recruiting interns, and I have been looking forward to the opportunity to join your company.
I graduated from XX a year ago. During my undergraduate course, I studied a lot of professional knowledge seriously and paid attention to cultivating my own organizational and leadership skills. He has won many scholarships and the honorary title of "Excellent Student Cadres".
At present, I am studying for a master's degree in XX and also working as an undergraduate teaching assistant. Through this year's study, I skillfully use C++ programming and Matlab simulation. And studied topics such as "the realization and algorithm optimization of license plate location and character segmentation in images in Visual C++ environment", "the principle analysis and research of ant colony algorithm based on Matlab and its TSP application".
I am cheerful and have the necessary ability for IT people to adapt to high-intensity work pressure. Attached is my resume. I hope you can consider my application requirements.
Finally, whether you choose me or not, please accept my most sincere thanks!
I hope:
Your company publicizes its exclusive advantages and gathers the essence of the world!

In fact, this cover letter is not excellent, but among the many resumes I have read, this is the better one I have ever seen. There are two things that make me feel that his impression on me is very clear:
1, what university and major did he graduate from? He made it clear. You'd better write clearly when you graduate. This one is sometimes the basic screening condition. But there is a failure here. Write clearly what position you are applying for. ...
2. The third paragraph mainly introduces some things he has done at this stage: for example, its main specialties in programming: C++ and MATLAB；; Current research topics and so on. When recruiting technical interns, we pay more attention to students' technical expertise, what professional skills they have mastered or what language expertise they have. Although his writing has no sense of hierarchy, at least C++ and MATLAB caught my eye and let me know at a glance that he has these two skills.
If you are recruiting non-technical positions, you'd better write down the internships or school activities that you are proud of, preferably related to the positions you want to apply for.
Technical posts are very dominant, and non-technical posts look at people's comprehensive ability. This is related to the interview, so I won't discuss it in depth here.
How to write a cover letter? My personal feeling is that you can refer to some tips of recent graduates, but don't copy them. What modern society lacks most is personal characteristics, but companies like unique people, especially foreign companies, and foreigners dislike the same thing the least. In other words, you can write whatever you want, write your characteristics, show your characteristics, and show your greatest advantages to hr at the first time. I'm telling the truth. If you are ostentatious, your cover letter will feel ostentatious at first sight. If you are introverted, your cover letter looks introverted at first glance ... the cover of the cover letter is your face. How to show your face to hr most naturally? You can think about it.
Keyword 5: Do you want to use English?
Some children are particularly good at English, and their emails are all in English. In fact, the biggest headache for hr is reading this resume. If English is good, read it twice, if English is not good, just delete it ... Right ... hr of foreign companies are also from China, and it is convenient for China people to read Chinese characters, saving time and improving work efficiency. Therefore, when writing a resume or cover letter, you should add Chinese in addition to English. Chinese is convenient for hr to read, and English highlights your English ability. As for hr, do you want to read it or not? My answer is: basically not, unless this hr is particularly free. ...
Bian Xiao said two words:
In college elective courses, it is also a headache for students to hand in homework and send emails. There are the following problems:
1, the email title is unclear, so it is better to write clearly what homework someone handed in;
2, the text is blank, I really don't want to give high marks when I see this homework email;
It doesn't matter if you don't pay attention to honorifics when signing emails. Students from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan did better and really learned.
4. There are many kinds of automatic signatures of emails, such as The Blacksmith at the Gate of Paris (literary edition), The Wind is Gone (regular edition) and Who am I afraid of? (second edition). If the email is sent to HR, it is still official.
5, the job search process pays attention to professionalism, or start practicing from the time you hand in your homework!
