Biza, sokszor ilyet is kérnek. És vajon mit is írjunk bele? Hogyan is fogalmazzam meg, mit hagyjak ki, hogyan tegyek jó benyomást, hogyan bizonyítsam be, hogy én vagyok a legmegfelelőbb jelölt? Az egyik legfontosabb, hogy legyen a levél letisztult, szép formátumú, elegáns, egységes stílusú.
A másik fontos dolog, hogy ne ugyanazt a kísérőlevelet küld el minden pályázathoz. Akárcsak az önéletrajzot, a kísérőlevelet is változtatni kell a megpályázott állásnak megfelelően.
Akkor jöjjön egy kis angol gyakorlás, majd néhány minta:
4 aspects you should include in your cover letter:
- Introduce yourself
- Argue why you’d be the best person for the job – SELL YOURSELF
Desribe your previous job experiences, your skills and ablilities that are essential for the applied job.
- Fill in the places your CV cannor desribe
- Explain other aspects of your CV
És egy pár példa, hogy ne csak a levegőbe beszéljek:

Subject: Application for the "Commercial assistant" position
Dear Mr. Smith,
I do not know what kind of colleague you are looking for. Based on my research and the text of the job posting, I suspect that I am the one that your company needs.
Why?
Because I have the academic background - I have studied sales at the Economic University in Budapest, which was my faculty for the last two years and I have applied my knowledge in real life.
Because I know both the Hungarian and the international markets – I have been working at the sales department of Biro Ltd. where I was a sales coordinator. I kept in touch with all the international clients of the company.
In addition I can communicate perfectly in both Hungarian and English.
Only you can decide if it is worth your while to meet me. I am ready; please give me a call.
Best regards,
