Imagine! A fabulous job opportunity came about. Its application process requires that you submit a well-written letter, which reviews both; (1) your position interest and, (2) your personal characteristics (only). You are a bit perplexed?
To make sure the letter sent is appropriate, and includes audience directed information, you decide to seek assistance. You contact Jane Sims, Director, CSUSB Career Center, by way of a memo. Within this memo, you explain the position opportunity, and the audience who will review this letter. You ask that Jane shares her letter expertise with you, because you really, need her feedback. For her critique, the memo includes a list of your personal characteristics (3-6, with support/examples). Memo's end has a request for future advisement.
Memo, follow the steps below:
- Cluster diagram which organizes:
- Position opportunity
- Audience of review
- Position interest
- Assistance request
- Personal characteristics
- Appointment request
- Turn your cluster diagram into an outline which includes memo format(s).
- With the outline as a guide, draft the memo to Jane Sims.
- Check its readability and note the score at document's end.
