"Please apply in writing" What exactly does this mean?

Recommended Posts

Apply in writing means apply with a handwritten letter. This generally means that prospective employers want to see if your handwriting is legible.

 

If you want to demonstrate flashy typewriting/IT skills, send them your printed CV.

I reiterate, 'Apply in writing' does not mean 'Please enclose CV'.

 

'Please send your CV with a covering letter' means they want your CV.

 

In this instance a hand-written (or part hand-written) letter detailing skills, attitude and experience relevant to the job being applied for is what is required. That's all. Enough said.
