Applications for jobs are written in a very formal, precise and to the point manner. In case the applicant has to focus on his qualifications and experience, a bio-data is enclosed. It includes important information regarding the candidate such as Name, Date of Birth, Contact Address, Educational Qualifications, Professional attainments, Experience Letter, Hobbies, Marital Status, Salary Expected and the References. The forwarding letter has the same format as. an official letter. In case, the information about the applicant is not detailed one, it is included in the body of the letter itself.
The bio-data or curriculum vitae (C.V.) is written in a standardised format. The forwarding letter reflects the personality of the writer. It must be brief and polite. While stressing personal qualities such as habits, manners, health, physique etc., it should avoid the two extremes of bragging and ingratiating.
