- The trend of writing "To," at the start of application just above "The Principal" has long been discarded. It is no more used now.
- "Subject line" is mandatory in latest format. Your subject line should clearly tell what your application is about.
- Salutation should include only formal greeting-you should not write "Dear Sir" nor "Hello sir". You should write "Respected sir" OR only "Sir"
- You should not start you application by "I beg to state that" OR "I beg to say that" OR "I Beg leave to say that" etc. This method is out of fashion and validity. It is no more in practice. The latest style is that you can start with "I humbly state that" OR "I want to state that" OR "I would like to state that" etc.
- The body of your application should include all necessary details but not unnecessary things. Be formal and professional. Do not use casual words or expressions.
