Applying for jobs

I spend my working life giving advice on how to write job applications, and when push comes to shove, I have really struggled to sell myself in my current application. I wanted to talk to somebody about it, but he isn't here any more, and certainly didn't have time before he went to boost my self confidence, so I have had to do it myself. It took time, but the application is ready to go into the post tomorrow - think I will send it special delivery...
Fingers crossed - I really want this job.
