Sometimes an advertisment will ask for a letter of application to be handwritten. Why?

Larger corporations will look for clues about your personality and work ethic based on handwriting analysis.  Whole college courses are taught on it.\n\nIt also may be geared towards you not plaguerizing material and trying to pass it off as your own.

Used to, you just  had to publish a notice like that in the local newspaper(s).\n\ni don't know if it needs any special , legal wording.\n\n\nHere is one published in a classified ad.\nhttp://lookatokc.newsok.com/classifieds/categories/?section=7260

You're worried the printed notecards are impersonal, but you're willing to send a form letter?\n\nEnclose a personal note if you want to, but it's not expected. Announcements like that are just fishing for gifts anyway, so save your personal notes for the thank you cards.

Yes, I've seen that happen before.  It's really annoying, but you figure if that's their style, do you really want to be working for them anyway?  More likely, they might offer something but refuse to put it in writing so that they can back out later.\n\nEdit: What that probably means is that you're kind of a second or third choice candidate for them, and they're still looking for the right person, but in case they don't find anyone, you're kind of the backup.  It's probably better to follow up still in case you can still get the job, but go ahead and treat it like you don't have an offer and keep searching for a job.

Probably a little rude. Would it really matter to write a letter back? A postcard that says the basic mundane things. Thanks for the card, hope you're well, life is so busy these days it's hard to find time to write, sorry I don't see you very often. Stuff like that. It's polite, and not technically a lie. The mention of short time normally discourages on going mail chit chat. It would be sort of rude to blow them off when they ask specificly for you to write. good luck

This is usually a local ordinance.  So you need to check with your local city or township officials. Plus, as most businesses are private property, the business has the right to forbid solicitation, which includes fliers and cards.  (Most do).

A peice of handwriting can be submitted as evidence and an analyst called to the stand to answer questions about what he sees, but it's a kind of out-there approach. I wouldn't recommend it at all if you don't hire a professional analyst.

As a managerial staff member of an unrelated company, I would ask you this question.  Why would you want to fill out an application on line?  Going to a location and filling out the application in person is a much better representation of yourself.  It shows that you are ambitious and that you want the job more than those that are too lazy to get off their rumps to apply.  (not to mention the online applications of most companies are put in the "circular file" - it may not be the most legal practice, but emails and such get lost from the Internet all the time.)

This means that the sender believes it to be important\n\nBe careful though, some spam messages have flagged priority to get you to open them so make sure you know the person

It is a letter you include with your job application and resume, highlighting some of your best points in terms of being qualified for the job.  It should be clear and easy to read, and never longer than one page.  It should be done on good quality paper.  In the letter you have to sell yourself.  It may be what gets you to the interview stage, so be meticulous with it.  It should be written with the specific job and employer in mind.  Remember that the person who reads your letter may read dozens of other letters for the same job so try to make yours stand out.\n\nThese sites should help you.  Best of luck with it.

It's better to be more specific than "to whom it may concern" or "dear sir" because people will not have time to read the letter.  If you are more specific, they can better direct the mail to the appropriate contact.  Here are some examples:\n\n"Dear Recruiting Team at IBM:"\n"Dear Hiring Manager at Johnson & Johnson:"\n"Dear Human Resource Representative at Pepsi Company:"

It is always appropriate to show appreciation when someone goes out of their way for you. Remember, these are the same people to whom you will some day be sending wedding and birth announcements. If you can't be bothered to thank them for their thoughtfulness now, why should they think of you at all on future occaisions?\n\nNo need to go the the expense of buying cards -- a handwritten note is even more "proper" than a manufactured card. It's not as much work as it sounds like. The notes need not be "great literature" -- just "It was kind of you to think of me. Thanks for the cute (inspiring, beautiful) card." ... If you have graduation photos, you might include a small one.\n\nIf there was no gift, you can even send a thank you by e-mail. Just be sure that the messages aren't all identical, and that you "mail" each one seperately. No one likes spam.\n\nNothing wrong with hand delivering the notes. Just write "By hand" in the upper right of the envelope, where you'd usually put a stamp. Again, attaching a grad photo is a nice touch.
