Email Correspondence


 
When emailing employers follow these tips to project your professionalism via cyberspace:
 
  • Use a professional email address instead of “hotbabe57@hotmail.com”
  • Use a meaningful subject header related to the email’s topic
  • Address the reader as:  “Dear Ms. Smith”, or “Dear Mr. Jones”
  • Refrain from using elaborate fonts, backgrounds or wallpapers
  • Refrain from using emoticons or abbreviations like L8R or LOL
  • Maintain your professional image by signing your full name at the end of the letter                and be sure to proofread before sending
  • Always remember to add attachments
