Heard of employee background check? The employer thinks twice before taking you in his organization. The selection procedure is not restricted to the resume and interview. He or she checks how you have performed, what was your general image in the organization, what work were you good at, whether you are punctual, etc. Point here is that what should stop you from doing an employer background check? Writing an application developer cover letter in a convincing manner will help you escape this check.
Yes, the resume is not sufficient if your wish to get a quick call for interview with the rise in competition. Hence, we need to put in some extra effort and how do we do that? By stepping into the recruiter's shoes and thinking what kind of candidates they look for. Although the educational qualification and experience is what matters the most there are other basic qualities or rather factors that matter in getting selected. For example, a genuine candidate who really is bothered about doing good work rather than just the money, and this especially stands true in case of freshers. Therefore, it helps if you look into some background of a company to have a fair amount of idea as to what they are looking for.
In this article, we will see a little about the application developer job description and how to write a cover letter. The format of the letter can be used to make it personal and send across to different employers.

Dear Mr. Ernest,
Re: Application for the post of Application Developer
I write to you about the Application Developer's vacant position in your company. I saw the advertisement in the local newspaper today and I wish to express my interest in being in your company. I have just graduated from the University of Texas and have developed quite a few applications myself for the latest i-Phone series. A group of us who have contributed equally developed the applications. I wish to meet you and show you the applications running. Our professors have debugged it already.
I am highly interested in the kind of work your company is involved in and I firmly believe that if one's hobby is converted into profession then no one can be left behind in climbing the success ladder. I request an appointment to meet and show you my work.
Thanking you very much for your time.
Yours sincerely,
Signature
