This is another COPY cat post!
I saw this accidentally when I search for a sample letter.
Here you go~


Attn.: The HR Manager,
Dear Sir / Madam,
Application for Post Of XXXXX
I refer to your full page ad in the newspaper ad today, which probably cost a whole lot of money, from which i deduced that you guys are rich and can pay me a lot to do less than my current job. Well, okay, my current job isn’t all that bad, but i screwed up something and would rather leave before more people find out about that fiasco. My company is very good at ‘pointing fingers’, or whatever cool new management buzzword they use to call it. You know my company, your direct competitor, which i will gladly bring all their secrets with me to your company. The address of my company is clearly printed on the envelope containing this letter.

Anyways, please call me for an interview, i haven’t worn my clean shoes and tie for awhile, since my last interview, in fact.

Attached is my resume, feel free to read it. Let me tell you first i can’t remember half of the stuff there, it’s been awhile, i tell ya. In fact i’m not sure if i actually DID most of those stuff, after such a long time, the line between white lies of a padded resume and reality blurs together. Anyway, let’s just assume i did all those stuff and know all that i say i know, ‘k?
Please also keep the interview short - 10 minutes max. I can only lie and keep a straight face that long before i… well, anyway.
Call me. Let’s do lunch.
Regards,
Job Applicant.

, On Wednesday March 10, 2010, 11:56 am EST
You may have heard the horror stories--job hunters who take phone calls or text during an interview, or bring out a sandwich and start chomping, or brush their hair, or worse. You wouldn't do any of those things, would you? Of course not.
[See the best careers for 2010.]
But there are tons of other job interview no-no's you may not have thought of. Or that you've forgotten. The job hunting trail is long and arduous, and a little refresher course can't hurt. So for your edification and enjoyment, here are 50 (yes, 50!) of the worst and most common job interview mistakes:
[See how to answer 10 tricky interview questions.]
