Today I helped my friend to write an application letter for inquiring an opening position.
An application latter has a fixed style: 1. opening: how you know this opening position; 2. introduce yourself: your educaiton background, working experience... the important thing is to promote yourself as possible as you can; 3. closing: the way to contact with you, and show appreciaiton at the end.
There are some useful sentences that you can use for your applicaiton:
(it was written according to my friend's situation)
Opening: (knowing this opening through friend's information)
1. At the suggestion of (friend's name, job title), I am enclosing my resume for your consideration.
2. I am writing to inquire the opportunity of (job name) in your company.
3. Please accept this letter and attached resume as an application for a (job name) position with your company/organization.
Promoting yourself:

+ make me a perfect candidate for this job.
or + would enable me to make a significant contribution to your company.

Closing:
