在格式方面与中文求职信还是有所区别的这主要表现在 英文求职信的主要内容和中文求职信基本一致。
信封的写法
外企在华的分支机构或分公司都会在招聘广告中给出中文地址，绝大多数情况下。终究入乡随俗，也可以防止邮递员因为看不懂外语而投递,只需按我国的习惯书写信封就可以了只是人名方面须要注意。如果广告上写的联系人是中文，困难。这种情况下。那么就直写 “ 先生收 ” 女士收 ” 好了,但如果联系人的名字是英文千万不要擅自把它译为中文。哪怕这个名字看起来很普遍、很熟悉，如 “ James不要写成 “ 詹姆士 ” Smith 不要写成 “ 史密斯 ”
如果外企给的英文地址，另外一种情况。那信封的写法就应遵循英美的习惯。一般的写法是信封的左上角(中文信封邮政编码的地方)
信封中间的地方写的收件人的名字和地址。收发双方的地址都要依照由小及大的顺序排列，写的发件人的名字和地址。依次是第一行
第二行写市(县)省名，写房屋号、门牌号码、街道或路名。第三行写国家名称。需要注意的寄往国外的求职信都要加上 “ 中国 ” 字样
而且一定是国名前。对于发件人来说，邮政编码位于省或者直辖市那行的行尾。如果你留下的学校班级地址，则一般顺序为：第一行写
第二行写系别，班级、专业。第三行写学校(如果系和学校字数少，也可以写在一行)第四行写市(县)省。可以每一行后都加上逗号
也可以行尾不加任何标点符号。此外，最后一行句号。名字要写在地址之前。
范本

余下的就是一封标准的求职信了，与前面那封大同小异，你只要替换一下名字就可以了。
