This process is called headhunting.

BrE: covering letter; Ami;: cover letter.

C. Selection procedures
Dagmar Schmidt is the head of "" recruitment at a German telecommunications company. She talks about the selection process, the methods that the company uses to recruit people: ""We advertise in national newspapers. We look at the backgrounds of applicants: their experience of different jobs and their educational qualifications. We don't ask for handwritten letters of application as people usually apply by email: handwriting analysis belongs to the 19th century.
We invite the most interesting candidates to a group discussion. Then we have individual interviews with each candidate. We also ask the candidates to do written psychological tests to assess their intelligence and personality. After this we shortlist three or four candidates. We check their references by writing to their referees: previous employers or teachers that candidates have named in their applications. If the references are OK, we ask the candidates to come back for more interviews. Finally, we offer the job to someone, and if they turn it down we have to think again. If they accept it, we hire them. We only appoint someone if we find the right person"".

Stanhope, Birmingham
8th October

Dear Mr. Scott,
I am writing because you said you wanted a Service technician in The Evening Mail of 7""' October. I`ve put my life story in with this letter. If you look at it you'll see I know a lot about engineering because I've been a maintenance engineer for six years. So I've learnt a lot about servicing manual and electrical systems. I took a conversion course the other day, all about pneumatic, hydraulic and electrical systems. It was pretty easy. Now I'm going to evening classes in the same things, and I hope I 'll pass the exams at the end!
I liked your comment in the ad about ""good prospects "" because I 'm not just in it for the money. I want a job that'll mean something. I'm sure you will understand.
Get in touch if there`s anything else you need to know. Give me a ring at work, it's 423419. In the evenings, you can always get me at my mother's in King Oak. I can come and see you at any time except Tuesdays, which are a bit awkward. Best wishes, Richard Walters
