I need to write a letter of introduction for employment, and I'm not sure how to do that. Can you help?

Is this for yourself for a specific job, or is this a homework assignment?

This is for myself for a specific job. I am applying with the school district as a secretary.

From eHow --

1) Use a familiar contact. If you have an "in" within that workplace, don't hesitate to use the person's name in the letter. Make sure to add the name and department that the person works in.

2) State any experience. Let the reader know that you have some experience. Include any highlights you want to mention or what you have learned from your experiences.

3) Include your education. You worked for that education, so make sure your potential employer knows about it.

4) Mention why you want to work for that particular place. Why is this place on your list of potential workplaces? Tell the reader of the letter.

5) State your intent. Let the reader know what you have to offer and what you plan on doing in that environment.

6) Conclude with a creative and respectful goodbye. This is just another way to stand out and show your personality.

7) Keep the letter conversational. Let the reader know that you are more than just a letter.
