Hello, I am seeking an employement for this summer and would like someone to check my english letter, thx for any comments and suggestions.

To whom it may concern

Dear Sirs,

I am seeking employment with your company as an apprentice for the summer of 2005.

I search for an innovating and stimulating environment and it is precisely your dynamic image that attracts me. At my age you like things moving and, as a young apprentice, I would like to make my first steps in a resourceful surrounding such as your organization. My preferred field of employment would be in the marketing department.

From a great motivation I constantly search to evolve and accomplish my objectives fixed academically or professionally. I have been to numerous sport camps in Sweden, France and Italy which prove my capacity of adaptation to various cultures and environments. Throughout the years I have contributed to the organization of some events such as the “La fête de l’Espoir” or a computer event in collaboration with the SIG (Geneva’s Industrial Service). I am also a member of the student association ‘Junior Enterprise’ for which I have been responsible of the organization and coordination of several mandates such as market searches, business plans, conferences, sponsoring etc. I have through these Events and mandates, often offered by big companies, developed my communication skills through the numerous meetings and by forming and leading the people under my orders.

I have learned from these experiences the value of teamwork and the importance of the level of engagement you put into every task. I have learned to concentrate on the goals fixed and deal with my time to meet deadlines. With my recent experiences from the Junior Enterprise and my academic past I am sure that I would contribute to your future campaigns and hope I will have the opportunity to join your team and await a great collaboration.

Thank you very much for considering my request.

Sincerely yours,


John
