APPLICATION LETTER (Other (Not Listed) Sample)

APPLICATION LETTER Name Date [Sender’s address and contact] [Receiver’s address and contact] [Date] Dear Sir/ Madam, RE: APPLICATION TO BE PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM AS ADVERTISED BY THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION I write in response to the advertisement by the public service commission announcing the impending intake of employees for the fellowship program for leadership that begins in March this year.
