写求职信的目的在于获得职位，一封求职信无论如何文辞并茂，令人心动，公司HR主管不见到应聘者本人是不会给予工作机会的。因此，求职信的实际目的在于获得面谈的机会。许多人都会copy网上的求职信范本，导致千篇一律，这是非常不可取的。我们已经讲过怎样写求职信，这次我们来谈谈求职信写作中容易被忽略的细节问题。

一、求职信的第一段说明写信的目的，有些专家认为不宜用分词句子，比如用下面的句子做开头，因为这样的句子被人用得大多，显得陈腐，失去特点。

Replying to your advertisement... 来源：考试大

Answering your advertisement...

Believing that there is an opportunity... 来源：考试大

Thinking that there is a vacancy in your company...

再比较下面三组例句。每一组里面(1)句较差，经过修改后(2)句显得比较恰当。
