For confidential consideration, please send letter of application, resume and salary requirements to our Human Resources Department.

What exactly do they mean by 'letter of application'?

Fuck them. If there asking for crap like that they are way to fucking picky and are probably assfuck employers. Try Mcdonalds instead.

Dear Sir or Madam:

I am writing in response to your advertisement on Monster.com, in which you announced an opening for a sales representative with *******.

I have two years working in the sales industry. I have demonstrated my ability to complete tasks thoroughly and efficiently while working for *** as an Outbound Sales Representative. Among my peers, I ranked in the top 10% of initial sales and closures. I demonstrated at least a 90% closure rate for all sales sent each month I was employed by ****. In addition to strong sales skills, I am computer proficient in all Office programs.

I would like to meet with you and will contact your office the week of February 24th to determine if an interview may be arranged. If you wish to contact me before that date, please call 555-555-5555.


Sincerely,

********

Perfect Bro! Karma is appreciated!

That's pretty good but you might want to get rid of all of those asterisks.

Also that 555 number. Some guy put that on a resume here and we couldn't figure out how to call him back. What an asshole.

Your letter is perfect. Best wishes in your search for a new job!
