Write a short application email
Recruiters get a lot of email. Short and specific is more likely to get read.
The idea
Many recruiters skim. A long cover letter that repeats your resume rarely helps. A short email does a better job. It says who you are, which job you want, why you fit, and what you have attached.
A good application email has four parts: the job you are applying for, two true facts from your experience that match the post, one line on why this role, and a polite close. Keep it under 150 words.
Give the AI the job and your two strongest facts. Tell it to skip empty lines like "I am a hard-working team player". Then read the email aloud. If a sentence does not sound like you, change it. If a sentence is not true, delete it.
Your task
Write an application email in under 150 words
Use the sample details first. Then try it with a real job post and your own facts.
Write a short job application email, under 150 words. Job: Customer Support Executive at a mid-size online pharmacy Where I saw it: the company careers page My name: Priya Nair Two facts that match the post: - 2 years handling customer calls and chats at a mobile repair chain - I trained 3 new joiners on our ticket system Why this role: I want to work in healthcare support, and I like solving problems on chat. Attachment: my resume (PDF) Rules: Include a subject line. Use plain, polite English. Use only the facts above. Do not use "hard-working", "team player" or "dynamic". End with [Phone] and [Email] as placeholders.
What you should get
A real example of a good result. Your wording will differ a little. The shape and the facts should match.
