RESUME
 RESUME BUSINESS LETTER

A business letter is a letter written in formal

language, usually used when writing from one
business organization to another, or for
correspondence between such organizations and
their customers, clients and other external parties.
The overall style of letter will depend on the
relationship between the parties concerned. There
are many reasons to write a business letter. It could
be to request direct information or action from
another party, to order supplies from a supplier, to
identify a mistake that was committed, to reply
directly to a request, to apologize for a wrong or
simply to convey goodwill. Even today, the business
letter is still very useful because it produces a
permanent record, is confidential, formal and delivers
persuasive, well-considered messages.

Types

The most important element you need to ensure

in any business letter is accuracy. One of the aspects
of writing a business letter that requires the most
accuracy is knowing which type of business letter
you are writing. A number of options are available for
those looking to trade in business correspondence,
and you will significantly increase your odds for
getting a reply if you know the form you need to send.

1.            Letter of Complaint

A letter of complaint will almost certainly result

in an official response if you approach it from a
businesslike perspective. Make the complaint brief,
to the point and polite. Politeness pays off regardless
of the extent of anger you are actually feeling while
composing this type of business letter.

2.            Resume Cover Letter

A cover letter that accompanies a resume should

revel in its brevity. You should take as little time and
as few words as possible to accomplish one task:
persuading the reader to anticipate reading your
resume. Mention the title of the job for which you are
applying, as well or one or two of your strongest
selling points.

3.            Letter of Recommendation

A recommendation letter allows you to use a few

well-chosen words to the effect of letting someone
else know how highly you value a third party. Resist
the temptation to go overboard; approach your
recommendation in a straightforward manner that
still allows you to get the point across.

4.            Letter of Resignation

An official letter of resignation is a business

letter that should be fair and tactful. Be wary of
burning any bridges that you may need to cross again
in the future. Offer a valid reason for your resignation
and avoid self-praise.

5.            Job Applicant Not Hired

In some cases you may be required to write a

business letter that informs a job applicant that he
was not chosen for an open position. Offer an opening
note of thanks for his time, compliment him on his
experience or education and explain that he was just
not what the company is looking for at the present
time.
6.            Declining Dinner Invitation

Declining a dinner invitation is a topic for a

business letter that, if not done tactfully, may result
in a social disadvantage. Extend your appreciation for
the invitation and mention that you already have an
engagement for that date. Do not go into detail about
what the engagement is.

7.            Reception of Gift

It is very polite to return a formal business

response letting someone know that you have
received her gift. Extend a personalized thanks to let
her know that you are exactly aware of the contents
of the gift. If possible, it is a good idea to include a
sentiment suggesting that you have put the gift to
use.

8.            Notification of Error

When sending a business letter that lets the

receiving party know that an error has been
corrected, it is good business sense to include a copy
of the error in question if there is paperwork evidence
of it. Make the offer of additional copies of material
involved in the error if necessary.

9.            Thanks for Job Recommendation

A letter of thanks for a party that helped you get

a job should be professional and courteous. Above all
else, avoid the temptation to go overboard in offering
your thanks. Be aware that your skills also helped
you land the job and it was likely not handed to you
as a result of the third party.

10.            Information Request
 A business letter that requests information
should make the request specific and perfectly
understandable. It is also a good idea to state the
reason for the information request. Extend advance
appreciation for the expected cooperation of the
recipient.

Parts

1.          Letterhead

Companies usually use printed paper where

heading or letterhead is specially designed at the top
of the sheet. It bears all the necessary information
about the organisation’s identity.

2.          The date of the letter

Date of writing. The month should be fully

spelled out and the year written with all four digits
October 12, 2005 (12 October 2005 – UK style). The
date is aligned with the return address. The number
of the date is pronounced as an ordinal figure, though
the endings st, nd, rd, th, are often omitted in
writing. The article before the number of the day is
pronounced but not written. In the body of the letter,
however, the article is written when the name of the
month is not mentioned with the day.

3.          The Inside Address

In a business or formal letter you should give the

address of the recipient after your own address.
Include the recipient’s name, company, address and
postal code. Add job title if appropriate. Separate the
recipient’s name and title with a comma. Double
check that you have the correct spelling of the
recipient ‘s name. The Inside Address is always on
the left margin. If an 8 1/2″ x 11″ paper is folded in
thirds to fit in a standard 9″ business envelope, the
inside address can appear through the window in the
envelope.

4.          The Greeting / Salutation

Also called the salutation. The type of salutation

depends on your relationship with the recipient. It
normally begins with the word “Dear” and always
includes the person’s last name. Use every resource
possible to address your letter to an actual person. If
you do not know the name or the sex of of your
reciever address it to Dear Madam/Sir (or Dear Sales
Manager or Dear Human Resources Director). As a
general rule the greeting in a business letter ends in a
colon (US style). It is also acceptable to use a comma
(UK style).

5.          The Subject Line (optional)

Its inclusion can help the recipient in dealing

successfully with the aims of your letter. Normally
the subject sentence is preceded with the
word Subject: orRe: Subject line may be
emphasized by underlining, using bold font, or all
captial letters. It is usually placed one line below the
greeting but alternatively can be located directly
after the “inside address,” before the “greeting.”

6.          The Body Paragraphs

The body is where you explain why you’re

writing. It’s the main part of the business letter. Make
sure the receiver knows who you are and why you are
writing but try to avoid starting with “I”. Use a new
paragraph when you wish to introduce a new idea or
element into your letter. Depending on the letter style
you choose, paragraphs may be indented. Regardless
of format, skip a line between paragraphs.

7.          The Complimentary Close

This short, polite closing ends always with a

comma. It is either at the left margin or its left edge
is in the center, depending on the Business Letter
Style that you use. It begins at the same column the
heading does. The traditional rule of etiquette in
Britain is that a formal letter starting “Dear Sir or
Madam” must end “Yours faithfully”, while a letter
starting “Dear ” must end “Yours
sincerely”. (Note: the second word of the closing is
NOT capitalized).

8.          Signature and Writer’s identification

The signature is the last part of the letter. You

should sign your first and last names. The signature
line may include a second line for a title, if
appropriate. The signature should start directly above
the first letter of the signature line in the space
between the close and the signature line. Use blue or
black ink.

9.          Initials, Enclosures, Copies

Initials are to be included if someone other than

the writer types the letter. If you include other
material in the letter, put ‘Enclosure’, ‘Enc.’, or ‘ Encs.
‘, as appropriate, two lines below the last entry. cc
means a copy or copies are sent to someone else.
