Re: Shall I write my name and address at the top right side of my Motivation Letter..?

Hi,

Send an application letter, for a job I presume, that begins with 'To whom it may concern'? Surely you jest! [:D]

For reasons that escape me, many of our learners here on the Forum seem endlessly fascinated with the idea of writing letters that start with 'To whom it may concern'.

A search will find a great deal of discussion about this, with many people telling them again and again about how rarely and in what special and uncommon circumstances this phrase is used.

Best wishes, Clive

If they are not a pair of German shepherds, then I am stumped. The dictionaries give no hint of another meaning (e.g . policemen or gumshoes), so we must presume that Fitzgerald means she had two big pet dogs whom she left on the dock when the ship departed.

Re: Correct order of professional titles after name

Clive — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 19:56:10 GMT

Hi,

I have a BSC (hons) degree and a SAC Dip, the degree was first then the diploma but I am in the process of joining goverening bodies for my profession. I am wondering what order do i need to write these titles in and also do i use the titles when filling in forms such as a passport or job application or do i just use them when writing letters. I am confused and cannot find any where online that provides the information.

The principle of 'lowest first, highest last' was suggested earlier in this thread.

I am currently renewing my passport, and I can tell you that, at least in Canada, educational information is not asked for.

For a job application, in my experience, educational qualifications are dealt with on one's resume/CV.

Generally speaking, people don't seem to list such things after their name when writing letters, with the occasional exceptuion of a doctorate. I guess it woud ultimately depend on what type of letter you are writing, and to whom.

Again generally speaking, such things are more commonly mentioned if you work in an academic setting.

Best wishes, Clive

It really bugs me the way Americans say a 'British' accent because more than one country makes up Britain, there is England, Scotland, and Wales, all of which have very different accents. Then of course all three countries have many regional accents which are again very different. I think I know what is ment when it is said I'm a friends fan and I know the episode where Ross puts on a 'British' accent so I presume that's what your refering to, but very few people in England actually speak like that.

I believe I don't have an accent, I'm from the South West so had a rather 'farmer' accent but neither of my parents were from the area so I managed to get rid of that pretty quick, I can still put the Dorset accent on when I want to but that is rare, I currently live in Devon and am able to pick up the Devonish accent which is similar but with the emphasis on different letters but again tthere arn't many occasions when I do. I can tell by listening to a person which county in the South West they are from so I get rather annoyed when people lump them all together as 'farmers' or the 'South West' because there is such a difference in just a small area.

I now speak Estuary English, Tony Blair also speaks this and when I was in Canada I was told I had a very nice English accent. It is quite posh and what I call 'speaking properly' because you don't drop any letters, you say all the T's and H's which are probably the most commonly dropped letters especially in what I would call 'Chav Speak' but I am aware that there arn't Chav's in America I think the best way I can describe it from my point of veiw is common and trying to be more common because it's cool (I don't know why) it comes from housing estates and they all have ASBO's which makes them cooler somehow. Anyway moving on from my dislike of chavs, although I should quickly mention that I'm not a snob it's difficult for people to understand the whole chav thing and I didn't even bring emo's and goth's into the equation.

The original poster was asking about RP (Received Pronunciation) also sometimes reffered to as a 'BBC' accent because for years all BBC news readers had to speak with it. It's generally seen as a very posh accent, I don't know if you've ever seen 'The Good Life' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLwcHuhwHRY&feature=related) Margot - the woman in that clip - speaks RP.

This is a good clip for explaining different British accents, although it mainly covers the many London accents, and misses out most of the others still: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLsVh6Qrpew&feature=related

I loved the comment about a Newcastle accent being posh, thats not at all the way it is regarded here.

George Harrison is from Liverpool along with the other members of the Beatles so has a scouse accent, but within Liverpool there are different accents depending on where your from so his accents may not completely match the other Beatles.

I'm not going to try and explain accents I don't know well so don't think this is all of them, I don't even know how many there are.

If you want to learn one I'd go for Estuary it's not very hard and one of the best for others to understand.

I hope I've helped, although I may have just confused things even more.

Doesn't Tony Blair used to change his accent depending to whom he was talking? For example, when speaking to younger speakers he used more glottal stops and so on. Moreover, I'm fascinated by Estuary English. Is it kind of a deviation from RP? What is not there what is in RP, and vice versa?

Motiv. Letter for applying at an Investm Bank - any help is greatly appreci

Anonymous — Tue, 05 Jun 2007 01:05:57 GMT

Hello everybody,

I would like to apply for an internship at an investment bank. Since this is my first attempt, I would greatly appreciate any help and support available. All the more I would be thankful, if your suggestions will be made during this day as the deadline is on June 06...
Thank you very much in advance!!

Dear Sir or Madam,

I have always wanted to work in a team with the spirit and the ambition to be on top. In order to do so, I would like to become part of xy having an aspiration alike. Therefore, I am hereby applying for the position as an xy in the investment banking department.

Of particular interest and being the reason for my desire to work in the fields of investment banking have been the emphases on Banking & Finance and Corporate Finance during my studies.

XY with its position as one of the leading investment banks offers a precious chance for me and I am excited by the opportunity to work with a group of experts from whom I can learn not only professional skills but also insightful ideas about the whole world of finance. I regard this internship as a crucial step to my career planning as I hope to become a lasting member and thus be able to realize my dream.

From the enclosed resume and transcript you will notice that I am a truly achiever, who has a special zest for challenges. In doing so, I will graduate in January 08, thus one year earlier than scheduled by the degree course scheme. Enthusiasm and a talent for effective organization do not only mean simple catchwords to me, but personal attributes which have been influencing my education in a very positive way. My organisational skills in conjunction with the necessity and ability to perform best under pressure and the ability to multi-task easily were key points in pursuing my studies at this pace.

Studying Law requires strong analytical skills; by studying Business Administration and Economics I was trained to become a quantitative thinker. All combined allow me to work more accurately and more efficiently.

Nevertheless, just being at university and learning theoretically and not practically did not fit my expectations. Hence, I decided to apply for the position as a financial consultant at yz. This work has broadened my outlook and gave evidence to my ability to being good with people. Not only there but also by playing football in a football club for over 16 years have successfully learned me valuing team cooperation and commitment.

I would greatly welcome the unique opportunity to intern with you as part of your team, to benefit from your knowledge, and to put my team skills, ambition, creativity and enthusiasm into practice.

Yours Sincerely,

Re: please check real quick the grammar of my application !!

Mister Micawber — Wed, 22 Nov 2006 00:22:45 GMT

The possible mistakes are underscored:

Dear .....,

We emailed one year ago, I put my previous emails together for you to remind you of our chat.
Further down you can read some of them. I applied for an internship and you were my contact partner.
After a discussion with .... you decided not to take students for an internship in 2006 at you company.

Today, after a year, I want to try again and apply for the position of a 2007 internship for the duration of
six weeks to three months. I'm available on semester holidays from 5. March until 13. May or 5. August until 10. Octobre.
In that time, I would come to L.A., rent a room and hopefully work at .....

I'm still very enthusiastic about it and look forward to meet ..... whom I only hear on mp3, to meet
the others in real life, to invest my knowledge and ambition in the company and to enjoy my first
internship in the USA.

In the attachment you will find a recent photo of mine and the resume.

Thank you for the time you take to read and hopefully till later.
