Job application and recruiting email templates
Applications, interview follow ups and candidate outreach.
A job application email should say which role, why you, and what is attached, in that order and inside 200 words. The reader is scanning for fit, not reading a cover letter twice. Keep the formatting plain enough to survive any inbox.

Who these are for
Written with job seekers, recruiters, hiring managers in mind, and kept plain enough to send from a personal Gmail account without looking like a marketing blast.
