What is an Email?
Electronic mail (also known as email or e-mail) is one of the most commonly
used services on the Internet, allowing people to send messages to one or more
recipients. Email was invented by Ray Tomlinson in 1972.
The operating principle behind email is relatively simple, which has quickly
made it the most popular service used on the Internet.
As with a traditional postal service, for your message to reach your recipient,
all you need to know is their address. Its two main advantages over "paper mail"
are the speed at which the email is sent (practically instantaneous) and the lower
cost (included with the cost of an Internet connection).
What's more, email can be used to instantaneously send a message to several
people at once.
• E-mail Basics
Make sure that your emails stand out because of the content, and not because
of sloppy mistakes, poor formatting, or casual language.
Use a readable font in a 10 or 12 point size in your emails. Send job search-
related emails from a professional email address - ideally, your email address
should just include some combination of your first and last name or first initial
and last name.
Here's what to include when sending job search correspondence and the email
message format you should use when you are sending employment related email
messages.
• E-mail Message Template
The following email message template lists the information you need to include
in the email messages you send while searching for a job. Use the template as
a guideline to create customized email messages to send to employers and
connections.
• Subject Line
Don't forget to include a clear Subject Line in your email.
Use the subject line to summarize why you are emailing. Some examples of
strong subject lines:• Application for Marketing Associate - Jane Smith
• Informational Interview Request
• Thank You - Marketing Associate Interview
• Referred by [Person's Name] for [Informational Interview, Discuss XYZ, etc.]
• Salutation
Use an appropriate salutation.
Dear Mr. /Ms. Last Name or Dear Hiring Manager:
• First Paragraph
The first paragraph of your email should include information on why you are
writing. Be clear and direct — if you are applying for a job, mention the job
title. If you want an informational interview, state that in your opening sentences.
• Middle Paragraph
The next section of your email message should describe what you have to
offer the employer or if you are writing to ask for help, what type of assistance
you are seeking.
Keep it concise and flawless with relevant punctuation.
• Final Paragraph
Conclude your email by thanking the employer for considering you for the
position or your connection for helping with your job search.

How to CC and BCC properly:
The carbon copy (CC) and blind carbon copy (BCC) tools are tricky.
Sometimes they're useful, but if used improperly, they can be problematic.
We have learnt how to compose E-mails. In the present age, applications for
jobs are expected to be sent through E-mails. For such purposes preparing a Bio-Data/
CV/ Resume is required.
Bio-Data / CV / Resume
Resume
Resume is a French word meaning “summary”. A resume is ideally a summary
of one’s education, skills and employment when applying for a new job. A resume does
not list out all details of a profile, but only some specific skills customized to the target
job profile. It thus, is usually 1 or at the most 2 pages long. A resume is usually written
in the third person to give it an objective and formal tone.
C.V. – Curriculum Vitae
Curriculum Vitae is a Latin word meaning “course of life”. It is more detailed than
a resume, generally 2 to 3 pages, or even longer as per the requirement. A C.V. lists
out every skill, all the jobs and positions held, degrees, professional affiliations the
applicant has acquired, and in chronological order. A C.V. is used to highlight the general
talent of the candidate rather than specific skills for a specific position.
Bio-Data
Bio Data is the short form for Biographical Data and is an archaic terminology for
Resume or C.V. In a bio data, the focus is on personal particulars like date of birth,
gender, religion, race, nationality, residence, marital status, and the like. A chronological
listing of education and experience comes after that.
