Update, April 16, 2011. To all of you reading this article, you might want to check out the following articles:
2.) How to respond to a wanted ad or a job posting
I hope this one helps. There is a sample resume in word at the very end of the article. Good luck on your job hunt! ~Reynz
To Claire at sa lahat nang mga anak kong pumasa sa nursing board exams, pati na yong hindi pumasa at naghahanap nang trabaho, let me tell you sumtin’… the application letter and resume or job application letter are basically your marketing material. Eto yong pinaka-importanteng papel na gagawin mo sa buong buhay mo once you start looking for a job. Por que? Dahil you are basically selling yourself.
I will not re-invent the wheel kasi gawa na tong mga how to write a cover letter, a job application letter, how to write a resume and all that. Actually, they are all over the internet. Search mo lang sya and you will find every nitty gritty detail kung pano buuin ang isang cover letter and a resume.
Ok, let’s start with your cover letter.
Your application letter is isa na yata sa pinaka-importanteng love letter na gagawin mo sa buong buhay mo. Wag na wag mong madaliin ari at I am telling you,?kahit na sa tindahan ni Aling Karing hindi ka kukunin. Ang epektibong cover letter will earn you a phone call, a text message o kaya a letter for an interview. Pagka bali-balikwa ang application or cover letter mo, aba! mag-aral ka uli! Dahil I’m sure enemployed ang dating mo. What’s the difference? Hay naku, simple key points lang anak. Di mo na kailangang mag PhD to come up with a good one.
Put some personal touch
Ang ibig kong sabihin, wag yong lalagyan mo nang pulbos at titiklupin mong pahati at pabalang gaya nong ginagawa mo nong grade wan ka’t bibigay mo sa nililigawan mong totay pa.?Ang ibig kong sabihin, wag na wag mong?i-ge-generalize ang letter mo. Describe mo yong particular experience and skills mo?at kung pano to makakapagcontribute sa business organization an ina-aplayan mo. Gaya sa exams, wag kang mango-ngopya. Instead, gawin mo para yong sulat mo represent your individuality and your capabilities.
Address to a specific person
Wag na wag kang magsusulat nang application letter addressed to the TITLE. Hanapin mo yong pangalan nang padadalhan mo nang sulat. Hay naku, wag mo akong tanungin kung saan mahahanap ang pangalan at ma-popokpok lang kita. If the name is unavailable, tawagan mo sila and?ask for the person’s name or at least the name of the personnel manager. Ako? Whenever I received an application letter at nakalagay lang na: Accounting Director, Finance Director, The Human Resource – I file the letter immediately sa thrash can. Why? Yong mga nagpadala nito eh mga tamaditos.
Catch the reader’s attention
Pag ako nagbabasa nang mga application letter, iisa ang hinahanap ko. Yanigin mo ako. Di ba? Ayoko nang boring letter. Kelangan ma-stimulate mo?yong interest ko. For example, you may want to begin with a reference to an advertisement that prompted your application. (Basahin nyo tong story ko kung saan ko nakuha yong ad nang trabaho ko sa Princeton.) Pag sinabi mo yon, magugulat pa sila dahil epektibo pala yong ad nila. O di winner ka na agad!
Anong mga isusulat mo sa 1st paragraph?
Be clear sa gusto mo.
-
Kung nakita mo sa dyaryo yong ad, name the position na nasabi dun sa ad and identify the source, for example: “your advertisement for a sexy and beautiful nurse, which appeared in the Reyna Elena Times, February 1, 2007,…”
-
Kung nag-po-prospect ka lang, try to identify the job title used by the organization.
Yong first paragraph mo dapat parang preview nang buong letter mo para alam nang reader mo kung ano ang susunod. Wag kang magbigay nang climax na tipon… TA-DANGG!!! Hindi to DreamGirls.
I-Highlight mo ang qualifications mo
Organize the middle paragraphs in terms of the qualifications that best suit you for the job and the organization. Meaning, kung ang on-the-job experience is your strongest qualification, discuss mo to?in detail and show how you can apply it?sa pangangailangan nang kompanya.?If you have two or three areas that you think are strong, you can develop additional paragraphs. Make your letter strong enough to convince readers that your distinctive background qualifies you for the job but not so long that length will turn readers off. Some employers recommend a maximum of four paragraphs.
Other pointers:
-
Conclude with a clear, courteous request to set up an interview, and suggest a procedure for doing so.
-
Be professional. Wag mong gagayahin yong mga katimangan ni Reyna dito. Baka itulak ka lang sa bintana. Ayusin mo yong ingles mo, yong gamit nang wurds but words. Yong spilling but spelling. You know what I mean!
-
Wag na wag kang magmamayabang. Di ko na to i-i-explain ano?
-
Seek advice. Gusto mo, send mo sa mga diwata ko ang cover letter mo at makilatis namin dito.
Here’s a sample letter:

i read youre article entitled HOW TO WRITE AN APPLICATION LETTER, very catchy, timely and helpful… it hit me to the bone…
you stressed out on what should be written and what should be not included…
i’ll take youre wonderful advice and tips… and its time for me to make a new and effective application letter and resume…
mine wasnt really that personal and individual, i copied the lines from a book and on the net. im fortunate that i read youre article, i realized that i wasnt really selling myself, i only mimic others personal touch…
and i really appreciate the fact that youre helping alot of people… you even took the time para sumagot dito sa friendster…
now, medyo confident na ko to apply for a job…

To you all who are reading this entry:
The sample letter I made obviously, I was making fun of it. I can’t believe that someone wrote me and was very angry at how lousy my letter was. You need to calm down and read between the lines. That was supposed to be a joke but essentially everything is in there.
This happens to be a trying hard humor blog so I hope you understand this people if you can’t discern it from the blog.
Happy reading!

thank you so much for helping me with my application letter. If its not with you I don’t know if I would be able to make a good one.I felt so relieved now coz it has been my problem since last year, as I’ve told you before I don’t know how to make any letter (except for the excuse letter that I used whenever I feel lazy to attend my class).
Finally I will able to submit it together with the other requirements.
An endless thanks to you. Since its chinese new year, I’d like to say “Kung Hei Fat Choi” to you and to all your diwata. Good health for eveyone!

Dear Dr. Peñafiel:
I am Joana Laroza Ibus, 20 years old. I am a graduate of Universidad de Sta. Isabel with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I have recently passed the Nurses Licensure Examination last November 2008. I am applying for the staff nurse position. I believe that my clinical experience in your hospital will be definitely useful for me to be more competitive nurse.
Attached herewith are my resume and credentials for further reference. I look forward to speaking with you about this opportunity. Thank you for your attention and consideration.
Sincerely,
JOANA LAROZA IBUS, R.N.

i will post my response as if it is number 1, ok? This is very straightforward. Wala nang kaek-ekan dahil wa ka naman expereince right? If you have attended training, maybe we could revise the letter to better suit it. Or ayusin mo na lang para maihighlight.

of course, heading is your name and address
If your application letter is address sa dalawang tao? Pwes, gawan mo nang dalawa para addressed sa isang tao separately.
Nakakainis magbasa nang sulat na merong kulasisi sa sulat ano? hahaha

kung hindi mo ilalagay ang desired position, baka akalain nila, nag-aaplay ka as President of the company. duda ko parang general application ang ginagawa mo. paki-basa nang entry at intindihin uli. kelangan ALAM mo kung anong ina-aplayan mo. hindi ka nila papansinin at sasabihin kong wala silang panahon na maghanap nang tugmang trabaho para seyo. tandaan mo, sangkatutak ang naghahanap nang trabaho. yon ang kalaban mo. pinahihirapan mo lang ang HR nyan. basura ang kahihinatnan nang application mo.

To all those requesting assistance on how to write an application letter, do me a favor, please read the entry first. If there is something that you don’t understand let me know.
Next, there is no such thing as “blank application letter” that you can send to anybody and for any position. I’ve explained it already.
What I’m reading from most of you and the emails I received is that, you want a quick application letter ready-made for you. This will not work. If you can’t draft a simple application letter, there is probably a high probability that you won’t be hired.

I am interested in the position as a volunteer nurse at Iloilo Mission Hospital. I am a graduate of a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from Iloilo Doctors’ College and I have passed the Nursing Licensure Examination last November 2009. I enjoy working with medical-surgical patients as well as in the special areas.
As a graduate nurse from Iloilo Doctors’ College, please accept my application for Iloilo Mission Hospital in response to your recent posting for volunteer nurse. I am an enthusiastic candidate with all the skills necessary to join this program and contribute to patient care at the hospital.
During my clinical exposures in various Hospitals here in Iloilo, Antique and Guimaras I have learned a range of nursing skills on the job. At most, I have learned how to become autonomous and collaborative in caring effectively.
I have developed the ability to think on my feet and I can use of good clinical judgment. I especially enjoyed my rotation on the emergency ward and hopes to one day specialize in this area.
I also collaborate well as part of a team, communicate well, and have excellent attention to detail. I strive to offer the best customer service to patients and always ensure safe therapeutic practice on the job.
I also received good grades, (pls. see transcript attached).
I have attended several seminars that enhanced my knowledge related for this profession.
I am available for interview at any time. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to meeting you.
Sincerely Yours,

I’d write it very simply this way:
Dear Mr. Pedregosa,
Enclosed, please find my resume in response to your recent posting looking for a volunteer nurse for Iloilo Mission Hospital. I have a BS degree in Nursing from Iloilo Doctor’s College on [insert date] and passed the licensure exams on November 2009.
Next, describe any on the job training you did. You only need to tell that you were on the job training for what hospital. I will delete the following:
a.) I enjoy working with medical-surgical patients as well as in the special areas.
b.) I am an enthusiastic candidate with all the skills necessary to join this program and contribute to patient care at the hospital.
c.) During my clinical exposures in various Hospitals here in Iloilo, Antique and Guimaras I have learned a range of nursing skills on the job.
d.) At most, I have learned how to become autonomous and collaborative in caring effectively.
e.) I have developed the ability to think on my feet and I can use of good clinical judgment.
f.) I especially enjoyed my rotation on the emergency ward and hopes to one day specialize in this area.
g.) I also collaborate well as part of a team, communicate well, and have excellent attention to detail.
h.) I strive to offer the best customer service to patients and always ensure safe therapeutic practice on the job.
i.) I also received good grades, (pls. see transcript attached).
Why, because the other candidates could also claim of the same thing and who knows, they might even be better than you. What you need to do is limit your entry about the duration of the training, what was the training about and the place.
If you write things like this:
j.) I have attended several seminars that enhanced my knowledge related for this profession
Then be prepared to list down the seminars on a separate piece of paper. As I have said, do not bore your reader. Do not make your letter way too verbose. For an entry level nurse, especially a volunteer, there isn’t much to write, so don’t write a term paper.
I hope this helps.
pls, send me sample of application letter tanx

Please take time to read the blog entry.
1.) I’ve said it already: address the letter to a specific person.
2.) Double check the position. Is it really “pharmacy lady” position? If it is, then change the words “entry level position”.
3.) Do not send your transcript of records unless requested. You need only send a cover letter and a resume.
4.) Please double check the spelling. “Farther Saturnino”?
5.) Please change the dates I’ve indicated.
6.) Don’t be redundant. They already know you are an applicant.
7.) Don’t write just so you want fill up the full bond paper.
Dear Ms. Specific Person,
My name is XYZ, 20 years old from Butuan City. I graduated from Farther Satunino Urios University with a bachelor’s degree in nursing on July 20, 2010. I am sending this letter because I am interested to apply for an entry-level position at your store. A copy of my resume is attached.
I am available to come in for an interview at your convenience. You can reach me at 0 (909) 123-4567.

Wala akong sample application letters. Kagaya nga nang blinag ko, walang isang application letter na papalitan mo lang ang address, yon na. Hindi. Kailangan, alamin mo kung ano ang requirements na hinahanap nila – tapos tingnan mo ang qualifications mo kung meron ka nun, saka ka gumawa nang application letter. Yan parati ang sinasabi ko na mas gusto nang karamihang employers and personal na letter na ginagawa kesa sa isang “canned” letter.
Kung gusto mo, gumawa ka nang matingnan natin. I-post mo dito sa comments.
Sana nakatulong ang sinabi ko. Salamat.

Good day Mam! I just want to ask you some advices. I am a fresh BSN graduate and board passer as well. Mam, would it be an advantage for me if I write a cover letter when in some hospitals they just require us to submit resumes and other credentials? Thanks for your response. If you also have time mam, could you please criticize my cover letter.

sending a cover letter is not a guarantee that you’ll be selected but it’s always good to send one especially if you’re sending a bunch of documents, depending on their requirements. a cover letter is also an “explanation” letter why you’re sending a resume.
i don’t speak for all employers, but in my experience, i don’t like receiving a resume without any cover letter. why? because i don’t know why they’re sending me one esp if we don’t have any opening or we have not advertised for any position.
send your ltr in word at ofwcenter@gmail.com

hey guys, this is reynz.
i’ve received a number of emails – all asking for help in writing resumes and cover letters. unfortunately, they all ask the same thing. that I WRITE THEM ALL. that’s not helping. you have to read what I wrote and understand it. it’s very simple. i will not prepare YOUR resume. i will not write YOUR cover letter. that’s not right. you have to learn.
the only ones i check are those who prepare their own resumes and prepare their own cover letters. why? nag-effort sila noh?
kudos to Palaboi from Cebu. i think he did a pretty good job.
thanks also to Merle from Zamboanga, the resume and the cover letter were perfect.
Lito from Baguio also did a fine job.
i’m glad i’m helping you guys. good luck sa job search!

Pointer people, pointers. I received a couple of cover letters to review. One thing I noticed – baka mamaya magka-ka-klase kayo and sharing cover letters. Why? They all start with – GREETINGS! Argh! Delete. That’s very hmpt!
Here’s what I wanted to know if you want me to review your cover letter. Are you replying to an ad? If you are, then send me a copy of the ad. If not, let me know. Cover letters depend on your response to my question.

Apologies if I am just responding now. Maganda ang sinulat mong resume. However, if I were you, I will delete the following:
1.) Tanggalin mo yong high school and elementary information. Hindi na kelangan yan. If you insist, leave the high school but definitely, wala nang paki-alam ang mga yan about your elementary.
2.) Tanggalin mo yong Personal Information and I believe eto ang maling ginagawa saten. Especially now na andaming nagnanakaw nang personal information, wag kang maglalagay nang personal information sa resume mo. You give it if they ask for it.
3.) Objective – typically ginagamet ang “Objective” sa resume pag kalimitan, baguhan ka lang sa job market. Given na I don’t have your resume, hulaan ko na lang. I think, dahil 2010 graduate ka and you just passed the board, I would assume, wala ka pang work? Dahil kung marami ka nang work, wag mo nang gamitin ang “Objective” kundi – EXPERIENCE SUMMARY na ang dapat mong ilagay. But just the same, let’s just say na baguhan ka. I would change the objective to say: “An entry-level position as (state the position that you are applying for) that offers professional advancement.

Dear Dr. Blah:
I have the honor to apply in response to your recent posting for RN Heals staff position. I have completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Blahblah University, class of 2011. I recently took and passed the June 2011 Philippine Nurse Licensure Examination.
With guidance from my preceptor, I have performed nursing duties such as IV therapy, blood transfusions, and catheter insertion. This experience has allowed me to increase my nursing skills while also providing a broader base of medical knowledge. I have earned good grades. I have enclosed my transcript of records and certifications of trainings.
If I would be given a chance I would like to be part of your institution that is known as one of the best performing institutions recognized by the Professional Regulation Commission.
I believe that the evaluation of my paper would merit your interest in considering me as one of the qualifiers.
I highly anticipate a personal interview anytime you may find it convenient.
Sincerely yours,
Victorique de Blois

——-Wordy, wordy, wordy. Keep it straight & simple. If it’s an honor to apply, what’s being offered with a job like? I’ll just say it what it is. How did you find the job? By paper? If it’s by paper, say it like it is:

[Reply]
Hello folks, especially those who have been sending me emails, please take my advice:
1.) The only way to learn how to write an application letter is to try writing one. Follow the pointers I have written here and READ… READ all the comments written here.
2.) If you are posting your letter her for me to edit, please do not post personal information about you. Be careful about those data.
3.) Please do not ask me to write the application letter FOR YOU. It will not work. Come interview, you will not make it. You have to do the basic work.
Good luck to all! And it’s in the trying that learning begins…
