Apakah kamu sedang mencari contoh surat lamaran kerja bahasa inggris (cover letter), misalnya karena ingin melamar kerja ke perusahaan multinasional?
Meskipun proses mencari pekerjaan sudah terjadi sejak lama, namun tak banyak orang yang dapat membuat surat lamaran pekerjaan yang baik. Hal ini karena kurangnya pembekalan bagi mahasiswa dalam hal persiapan untuk melamar pekerjaan ke sebuah perusahaan. Sehingga kebanyakan dari mereka membuat surat lamaran pekerjaan yang berbelit-belit dan membuat staf Human Resource and Development (HRD) menjadi bosan untuk membacanya.
Salah satu trik agar surat lamaran kamu dapat tampil berbeda dan lebih baik dari pelamar lainnya adalah dengan menulis surat lamaran pekerjaan menggunakan bahasa Inggris. Dengan menulis cover letter menggunakan bahasa Inggris, perusahaan tempat kamu melamar akan menilai kamu sebagai pelamar yang memiliki kemampuan lebih. Selain itu, kamu akan dinilai memiliki skill yang lebih.
Kemampuan berkomunikasi dalam bahasa Inggris akan mempermudah posisi kamu di perusahaan untuk berkomunikasi dengan klien-klien dari luar negeri nantinya. Terlebih, saat ini merupakan era global, ketika kita diwajibkan untuk setidaknya dapat berbahasa Inggris.
Membuat surat lamaran berbahasa Inggris sebenarnya tidak sulit. Hampir sama dengan surat lamaran berbahasa Indonesia. Intinya, kita harus memperkenalkan diri terlebih dahulu di awal surat. Kemudian masukkan latar belakang pendidikan, dan tonjolkan kelebihan kamu di surat tersebut. Agar kamu mudah mendapatkan referensi untuk membuat surat lamaran berbahasa Inggris, berikut beberapa contoh cover letter Bahasa Inggris bagi fresh graduate yang bisa dijadikan acuan.
