People mistakenly and cruelly judge you based on fashion.
The writing process can be described as a recursive process. For many years, it was considered that writing was linear, and that 5 steps were needed:
Prewriting: It's similar to Brainstorming. You organize your thoughts, your ideas. You plan how the text should be organized.
Drafting: It is your first attempt. Forget about grammar.
Revising: Now, you can add things, re-arrange words or paragraphs, take out.
Proofreading: this is the editing time. Mistakes, tenses should be considered. Clarity is essential.
Publishing: final stage. Ready to print or handed in toyour teacher
But in further research, it was proved that those stages overlap, as they are repeated throughout the writing process.
BRAINSTORMING is a helpful step to take before writing as you put into paper all your ideas ( you may use all or some of them) It is opening your mind to any idea that comes, however crazy it sounds.
COVER LETTER There are some key elements that should be considered when writing a cover letter:
- Begin with your contact information ( on the left of the paper, towards the top,in block)
- Don't forget the date as with any normal letter!
- Include to who this letter is addressed ( hiring manager, head of the recruiting department, etc)
- Formal salutation
- Opening paragraph (explain how you learned about the opening position)
- Middle paragraph ( a summary of your background and why you are suitable for this job)
- Contact information and closing ( explain when you are available, thanks the person for his/her time and consideration)
