- No proper subject

- Resume file name is very dull (like mycv.doc, resume.doc, date of resume.doc etc)

- Not mentioning the job code

As Fresh Gradutes, the young generation generally use the langugage which they use in chatting like for example: u instead of u, urs instead of urs only to name a few, so such langugage shoud be avoided when writing an professional emails and also Subject line plays a very prominent role when writing an email.

3. Always put a relevant subject line.

4. Clearly communicate your message through short and simple setences.

5. Mention sender details clearly at the end.

1.They must first and for most avoid slang language/short forms.

2. Email with subject must .

3. Must check spellings .

Treat all mails as of same level. Classification (starring) of mails according to their importance first and then reactions accordingly is the right way.
