一封准备充分的求职信,可以大大提高你的求职成功率。求职信是求职过程中很重要的一环。在未与雇主正式接触之前，这封信就是你们之间的桥梁。文笔流畅，格式正确的求职信能给招聘者留下良好的印象，获得面试的机会就大增加。一般来说，写求职信时要大致涉及到六个方面。
1.介绍消息来源
介绍消息来源实际上是求职信的开篇交待句,它可使求职信显得自然、顺畅；而不介绍消息来源,会使收信人感到意外、突然,文章也缺乏过渡、照应,本文消息来源可作如下介绍：I was referred to you by Mr. Zhang, a Partner with your Beijing office。
2.表明求职心愿
介绍完消息来源后,应向收信人表明自己的求职心愿，让招聘者者一目了然。例如：I am writing to you in the hope of that I may obtain opportunity of teaching post in your school .
3.介绍个人经验、能力
介绍个人的经验能力时，还需与求职岗位要求相对应，拣重要的写。例如：When I was still a freshman, I got Band Two certificate for computer, which was outstanding in my class. Besides, I have attended various computer contests and won top prizes several times, which greatly enriched my knowledge on computer. Finally, I had once worked part-timely in a company for two years, and I gained wide experience in software in these two years.
4.摆出自己优势
如果只有工作经历而没有自身的优势和特长,也很难求得称心如意的工作.因此,求职时应表明自己除了具有一定的工作经历之外,还具有一定的优势和特长,这样才能稳操胜券.本文可通过如下方法摆出自己的优势：I work hard and I can get along well with others. I'm good at English and especially my spoken English is very good. I've translated many Chinese books into English. I can understand Japanese and I can talk to foreigners in Japanese freely.
5.请求答复联系
如果单位领导同意了你的求职要求,你必然要请他和你联系,以便你及时做好准备,到用人单位应聘或报到.为准确起见,请求答复联系时你还应当提供你的通讯地址、邮政编码、电话号码、电子信箱等.本文答复联系的内容可作如下介绍：If you agree with me, please write a letter to me or phone me. I live at No.1 Renmin Road, Suzhou city. My telephone number is 3654371.
6.表达感激之情
无论你的请求是否能够得到满意的答复,你给用人单位写信就是给对方添了麻烦,因此你应向对方表明感激之情.本文可这样来表明感激之情：I would be pleased if you could offer me an opportunity to interview me.
上述六部分内容联成一个整体,再加上下面的信尾,就成为一封完整的求职信.
求职信切忌：
1、不够自信，过于谦虚
求职者应当在信中强调自己的强项，即使不可避免地要说明自己的弱项，也没有必要那么坦率。
2、主观意愿，推理不当
许多求职者为了取悦于招聘单位，再三强调自己的成绩，而不知有关经验与能力对职位的重要性。
3、语气过于主观
对于招聘单位来讲，他们大都喜欢待人处世比较客观与实际的人，因而求职者在信中尽量要避免用我认为，我觉得，我看，我想等字眼。
4、措词不当，造成反感
写求职信最忌用词不当，例如：有我这样的人才前来应聘，你们定会大喜过望。
