I hold a Master degree.


In a cover letter for job applicatipn, it is common to write


I am a hard-working, creative and resposible Master ..?

or I should write

I am a hard-working, creative and resposible postgraduate ..?

Hi,

No.

I suggest you split this into two points.


I am hardworking, creative and responsible.


I have a Master's degree in . . . 


But only say these things if they are relevant to what is needed for the job.

bad news..


i don't want to combine those 2 sentences, because my cover letter will be too long.


English is confusing.


master =

holder of the second university degree


postgraduate =

person doing postgraduate studies
