I have underlined some problem areas. One point-- usually, you should use simple past tense where you have used present perfect:

Motivation Letter:

The Graduate programme in Finance at Hampton College is according my target to develop my skills on the financial field for a knowledge improvement and a career progression on the financial industry. Regarding the excellent reputation of Hampton College in specific, the Department of Economics, and its international recognized researches, I have chosen Hampton to study. Furthermore, I also plan to do the Master in Finance at Hampton, after finishing the graduate finance program.

I have a work experience in La Caja, one of the biggest spanishes bank in assets, working in an external commission auditing loans contracts and reporting directly for the Spanish Central Bank and the National Treasury. After that, I have finished my degree and I came to London to improve my English skills when I have started to work in a International Company of Fundsâ Transfers, liasing with more than 240 banks around the world, processing and confirming multi FX settlements, treasury, daily reconcialitions and cheque risk administrations. Starting as sales executive and finishing as a manager in the central branch of the company.

Aside my working experience, I also have knowledge in stock market, being a keen awareness of world events, current affair and financial markets. My interest in those subjects have started after I made a course~~, during my degree,~~ in financial markets and technical chart analysis, and I have started to invest on the Madrid Stock Exchange using an online stockbroker platform.

I have studied the elementary and high school in a top school in Madrid, Montfort School, which allowed me to enter in a top 5 university in Madrid, Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Where I have studied Business Administration, what the equivalent in UK would be a Bachelor Hons Degree in Science in Business Administration. Which includes, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, economics, administration, human resource and strategy planning.

Hello,
I'll be really glad if somebody checks my motivation letter draft too. I've gone through this forum and copied some ideas and even senteces into that. I'm not sure if I can ask you also for grammar correction, but if somebody correct (maybe "fills in" is more appropriate, plenty of them are missing <img src="/emoticons/emotion-1.gif" alt="Smile [:)]" /> the articles and tenses, I'll really appreciate that. I'm going to enclose this text and my CV to a short email with application. Thank you a lot!

Jan

Here it is:

Dear Sir / Madam,

With this letter I wish to explain my interest for taking part in PhD project "***" which is proposed by the *** team.

I believe my motivation for applying for the position can be better understood considering my study path so far. I started my bachelor studies of Computer Science at *** Faculty of *** University in *** with clear intention to continue with master studies at the same place. After completing my bachelor degree I've chosen a specialization on Software Systems. From the beginning of my master studies I've been focusing on the field of formal methods in software development and especially on model-checking. During that stage I won the scholarship for excellent study results and finally I got my master degree this January with overall grade 1.

While working on my master thesis focused on model-checking of concurrent systems, I decided to get deeper knowledge in the field of formal verification and software reliability. I started to look for research groups and laboratories concentrating on these topics. I realized that *** group is dealing exactly with the problems I'm interested in and I immediately decided to apply for a PhD position in your team right after finishing my master studies. To get broader survey in the area of formal verification I started to attend a seminar, where many scientists focused on this topic present their current results. I also attend an intensive everyday course of French since September to reach at least basic level of the language.

My choice of my former university and faculty was based on general belief that this institution is the most challenging and provides the education of the highest quality in my country. This fact helped me to make my best while studying there. But now I appreciate an opportunity to focus on an exciting research topic even more than high demands imposed on students. I consider the *** group to be both the great challenge and the place of projects exactly corresponding to my research interests. I think of that as of opportunity to get broader view of formal methods and security and to take part in the top-class research project with exciting goals.

I'm convinced that I can contribute to the above-mentioned project because of the experience gained from my master thesis and during my master studies. In my work I dealt with model-checking, implementation of temporal logic, formal specification, modeling language design, semantics and translation. I believe that I can apply my knowledge of program verification in your project and that it is an excellent opportunity to get an expertise in the field of my utmost interest. I consider program verification and reliability being crucial for further development of software industry and I definitely want to take part in research of this area. From my part I have no doubts about my motivation and commitment and I believe that I am a suitable candidate for this PhD position.

Yours respectfully,
my name

Re: Should I mention example production in my motivation letter?

GG, thank you for your reply.

The above sentense is a very fascinating one but the position I would like to apply for, is actually a project manager with ability to develop simple videos and animations.

I have misled you with my first post. I'm sorry for that!

Re: Motivation letter to Erasmus University Notterdam

Clive — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:26:04 GMT

Hi,

now I have some questions:

* In the sentence "and already in high school they brought me to the decision that I would like to continue my future studies..." you placed "even" instead of "already", so we don't use already in this context? Because in Hebrew and Russian it's the most suitable word.. 'Even' sounds better.

* In the sentense "I was always interested in business and economics, therefore during my service I deeply enriched..." you replaced "therefore" with "so", why I can't use therefore here? 'Therefore' is not a conjunction. If you want to use it, start a new sentence or say 'and therefore'.

* I fixed the last paragraph, so please review it:

Finally, I think Erasmus University Rotterdam is an excellent place to start my career. Being very motivated and ambitious, I think my strong points are good communicative and administrative skills. I would like to work and study in a team of enthusiastic and determent students, and eventually to achieve the goals that I defined to myself.

Mister Micawber — Mon, 04 Jun 2007 07:33:50 GMT

Much better, Shanawaz. I have suggested just a few further changes in bold below, to smooth and tighten the text up a bit, and to lessen the hyperbole:

Statement of Purpose

I am currently employed in a very promising position in Bangalore at Molecular Connections Pvt. Ltd. I have been recognized and lauded for my knowledge of biochemistry, and I enjoy intellectual interactions with my Ph.D. colleagues; I am trained to think logically and solve problems. My peers consistently place me in a leadership position, and I have a reputation for performing well beyond what is expected. Still, I feel an empty place in my life. While my friends and colleagues do not understand my decision to leave this rewarding career, I know that I have no choice if I am to pursue my long-term goal and my childhood dream: to teach and to publish research. I think that I have made the right decision, although my friends think I am sacrificing certain career advancement for superfluous training. What they do not understand is that I will derive even greater satisfaction from pursuing a doctoral degree than by earning a higher salary and advancing in my present career. By pursuing a graduate degree, I will have the priceless opportunity to realize my dream.

Initially, I saw my current job as a valuable opportunity to further my learning experience, and indeed, over the past two years, I have acquired a broad knowledge of drug discovery, chemoinformatics and bioinformatics. But my current job has contributed less toward my long-term career objective of teaching, and conducting and publishing research that would contribute to my field of specialization. I am driven more by my dreams than the salary and prestige of a commercial career: I also hope to contribute to society by disseminating my knowledge as an academician.

A research career in neurobiology is my life goal. In my opinion, there is no scientific study more vital to man than the study of his own brain. Neuroscientists have learnt a considerable amount about the functioning of the brain, but they admit that it remains one of humanityâs most enduring mysteries. I have clearly envisaged my path in neurobiological research and am convinced that the stakes in this new and fast growing field are critical. I would like to make my contribution to unravelling the intricacies of neurobiology.

Excited since I was a child by the idea of becoming a scientist, my interest in pursuing graduate studies intensified during my undergraduate education and my initial research. Having a thirst for biology, I pursued my degree in Biochemistry at prestigious Vysya College, although I had opted for computer science in secondary school. With a chemistry background, I excelled in my undergraduate studies. My core subject became very interesting under the tutelage of an experienced faculty. I was even allowed to take biochemistry for twelfth grade students in my eleventh year, and that opportunity secured me a 1st grade in Human Physiology and Cell Biology.

As a day scholar, I worked without salary as a part-time trainee in their renowned clinical laboratory. There I learnt molecular techniques and research approaches in molecular biology. I also took a laboratory course exclusively for electrophoresis techniques at the Electrophoresis Institute, and my quest for advancement in biological sciences encouraged me to undertake clinical laboratory work at Gopi Hospitals. "One personâs life influences the lives of an unbelievable number of people," goes the saying, one of the most important lessons I have learnt. This experience taught me to be a responsible person and boosted my confidence. It also taught me that the bases for good work are self-reliance and personal time management. These three years were not free of shortcomings. I learnt to accept both criticism and praise with a positive frame of mind. My work involved organizing various events, which gave me the opportunity to work and interact with various kinds of people. This was a very gratifying experience for me, which I feel will stand me in good stead in the future.

I pursued my postgraduate degree in Biochemistry in order to gain basic eligibility for research. The core subject inspired me to carry the basics of biochemistry to undergraduate students, and I involved myself in self-help initiatives such as paper and poster presentations at various state-level seminars. In partial fulfillment of my postgraduate degree, I worked at the Central Leather Research Institute (CLRI-ADYAR) in the Department of Bioproducts. There, I worked on protein purification and its characterizations, which provided me a clear perspective of research and aided me in acquiring other molecular techniques.

As a prerequisite for attaining a PhD in Neurobiology, I underwent intense training in a course in Laboratory Animal Management at the National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences. This course gave me practical exposure to isolating the brain and its major components. Drug administration and sample collection techniques with laboratory animals were also fundamental parts of this course.

My journey so far, from undergraduate student to current occupation, has been carefully planned. I believe that my determination to study further, my considerable laboratory experience, and my strong academic background in various areas of biochemistry will be very beneficial for my research work in your laboratory.

Good luck with your application. Be careful of your typing if you re-type this-- typographical errors are a signal of carelessness to the reader.
