Morphology
The meaning 'a formal request made to an employer for employment' is directly derivable from combining 'job' (a paid position) with 'application' (a written request). This is a common, compositional noun phrase with clear cross-linguistic equivalents, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand it.
Etymology
Job application comes from the simple idea of handing a written application, a paper 'request', to ask for a job, like giving your name and skills to an employer. That's why job application means the formal written request you send when you want to work.
