I have never written a cover letter, I did read some outlines today. State purpose, note why you would be a candidate, create a desire for them to turn the page and see what your qualifications are. But I have had 30 jobs that I can remember, from a teacher to ditch digger, a heavy equipment operator, to motorcycle salesman. I am currently &lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;employed&lt;/span&gt; in very good position. I plan on sending 200 or more letters to companies who have positions for some specific title warehouse foreman or customer relation or shift manager all of which are in new Zeeland for example, and there paying to fly me and my family out there, that&amp;#39;s expensive! I have to prove with out a shadow of a doubt, that I am the guy their looking for. I have forgotten more about those jobs than some guy with a masters degree and three years experience knows, but I do not have 6 years in a specific position to sale them, so I have to paint a picture with words, or get a snapshot of my life on one page, its tough. Look at my week for example, I wined and dined some vendors for pricing, and adjusted my inventory for anticipated workload, For my company. I did some computer diagnostic work on some 2007 trucks in our fleet, and rebuilt a pressure washer. At home I bailed 900 bales of hay, put new floor timbers in the barn, and bid a job to due some commercial wiring on my own, who dose that in a week! I certainly am not the most talented guy on the earth by know means, but I do have a unique past, and a abnormal amount of abilities so I&amp;#39;m always told. I am applying for the rarest of jobs those only out of the country, where I can relocate and reunite my family, a very odd situation Which by the way needs to be told, as they all want to know why your applying for a job out of your country; and the world is going to force me to write a conventional cover letter! At this point in my life, what is conventional about my life or needs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I appreciate all of you input and heed all you advice, but I am questing the common principles. Is it not possible a person with a uniquely diverse past, in a very peculiar situation, trying to gain employment in a foreign country, for the sole propose reuniting a family. Appealing to employers who facing the toughest hiring situation, overseas placement, none of this justify a cover letter a little uncommon? maybe not critique away&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Could you giveme a feedback on this Cover Letter?</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/CouldGivemeFeedbackCoverLetter/gvbrp/post.htm#521082</link><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 22:24:42 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:521082</guid><dc:creator>Mr Wordy</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;I ought to say at the outset that I&amp;#39;m not an expert on the subject of US visa regulations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;I think that you should state your nationality (in addition to where you live) at the top your CV, but it sounds as if you might have already done that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;In your covering letter, in the part where you say &amp;quot;I am ***, lived in *** until I was ***&amp;quot;, I would consider also saying &amp;quot;I have *** nationality&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;***&amp;quot; being &amp;quot;British&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;French&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;German&amp;quot;, or whatever it might be). Then I would leave it at that for now -- there&amp;#39;s no need to raise additional doubts and complications that detract from the positive points that you&amp;#39;re trying to get across. Then, if they follow up your application, you can bring up the visa issue if they don&amp;#39;t do so first.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;I&amp;#39;ve suggested a few small changes&amp;nbsp;to your letter, which I marked up below. &amp;nbsp;I struck out a sentence that I thought didn&amp;#39;t really add any value beyond what you&amp;#39;ve already said. There were several places where you were missing spaces after full stops that may not be obvious in the markup.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;To me,&amp;nbsp;the tone and content&amp;nbsp;seem fine, and it&amp;#39;s about the right length. Certainly I don&amp;#39;t think it needs to be longer. But if you can somehow sneak in just a couple of words to indicate how your qualifications and experience are directly relevant to C# web development (rather than IT in general) then that might be a good idea. But no need to go into great detail because that will all be explained on your CV.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;font&gt;Dear Mr ..,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;i hereby wish to state my
interest for a place in your Master Programme on  Entrepreneurship
and Innovation( Master Professionnel) ,  a Programme that i found on
your webside while looking for such studies.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;My desire to  enrol on
this special programme reflects my ambition to be independant and my
interest in Entrepreneurship.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;I have always dream to
have my own business.  After my Study in Physics sciences at the
University of( Country ) instead of becoming
a Teacher i started a business together with a friend. We started
with a small budget to produce coconut oil-based Soap in informel
Sector.But in the long run  i noticed that ideas without knowledge
are difficult to be transformed in sustainable projects so  i decided
to join a  privat business College to acquire basic knowledge  in
Accountancy,Marketing, Finances and sales techniques.My experience in
this business has showed me the real role Entrepreneurs can play in
developing countries and for me there is no doubt that
Entrepreneurship can alleviate poverty by contributing to economic
growth and Job creation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Since Spring
2004 i have enrolled on the programme Business Mathematics or
Mathaematics . I started the
courses at the University of .. where i spent one Semester then i
moved to University of..&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;There are
three specific reasons why i want to join a programme on
Entrepreneurship&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;First  i noticed once
again that whatever i was studying, my desire to fulfil a life long
wish deos not quit my mind and is becoming stronger .So i have
decided to go for a suitable Master programme which will provide me
with  the the tools to fulfil my wish.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Secondly i beleave that
great ideas without knowledge are difficulte to be transformed into
sustainable projects Therefore learning the process of development
and the implementation of new business ideas is very important for
me.I think that Entrepreneurship Programme is the most suitable
Programme to learn this process fom the idea to the setting up and
growth of a company until the eventual withdrawal from the business
project&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Thirdly i have some ideas
and i want to take part to the actions that aim to alleviate poverty
on the african continent and an Entrepreneurship programme will
surely help me to select,evaluate and implemente those ideas in oder
to create sustainable businesses that will help to alleviate poverty
by contributing to economic growth and job creation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;Why this special
Programme  at the university of( Country) &lt;span id="lw_1211529734_0"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;The location  of the
university of &lt;span id="lw_1211529734_1"&gt;..&lt;/span&gt; in the heart of &lt;span id="lw_1211529734_2"&gt;Europe&lt;/span&gt;,its international
environment,the involvement of an international faculty and a wide
network of business community members are factors that will provide me with international skills and experience to anable me &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font&gt;to compete on the global market These&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font&gt; are some of raisons why i chose to
study Entrepreurship at your Institution&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Another raison is the
cours concept:optimal balance between theory and practice is exactly
what i am looking for . The fact that i will  have practical
experience of daily business practice increases my motivation,because
the practical part of the programme will show us the difficulties
that Entrepreneurs may encounter and will provide us with skills and
experiences to deal with obstacles.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;The uniqueness and the
duration of your Entrepreneurship curriculum are other factors that
lead to chose your institution&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;I think your programme is
very special because it provides knowledge not only in

&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;font&gt;Dear Mr ..,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;i hereby wish to state my
interest for a place in your Master Programme on  Entrepreneurship
and Innovation( Master Professionnel) ,  a Programme that i found on
your webside while looking for such studies.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;My desire to  enrol on
this special programme reflects my ambition to be independant and my
interest in Entrepreneurship.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;I have always dream to
have my own business.  After my Study in Physics sciences at the
University of( Country ) instead of becoming
a Teacher i started a business together with a friend. We started
with a small budget to produce coconut oil-based Soap in informel
Sector.But in the long run  i noticed that ideas without knowledge
are difficult to be transformed in sustainable projects so  i decided
to join a  privat business College to acquire basic knowledge  in
Accountancy,Marketing, Finances and sales techniques.My experience in
this business has showed me the real role Entrepreneurs can play in
developing countries and for me there is no doubt that
Entrepreneurship can alleviate poverty by contributing to economic
growth and Job creation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Since Spring
2004 i have enrolled on the programme Business Mathematics or
Mathaematics and Economics (Witrschaftmathematiks). I started the
courses at the University of .. where i spent one Semester then i
moved to University of..&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;There are
three specific reasons why i want to join a programme on
Entrepreneurship&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;First  i noticed once
again that whatever i was studying, my desire to fulfil a life long
wish deos not quit my mind and is becoming stronger .So i have
decided to go for a suitable Master programme which will provide me
with  the the tools to fulfil my wish.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Secondly i beleave that
great ideas without knowledge are difficulte to be transformed into
sustainable projects Therefore learning the process of development
and the implementation of new business ideas is very important for
me.I think that Entrepreneurship Programme is the most suitable
Programme to learn this process fom the idea to the setting up and
growth of a company until the eventual withdrawal from the business
project&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Thirdly i have some ideas
and i want to take part to the actions that aim to alleviate poverty
on the african continent and an Entrepreneurship programme will
surely help me to select,evaluate and implemente those ideas in oder
to create sustainable businesses that will help to alleviate poverty
by contributing to economic growth and job creation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;b&gt;Why this special
Programme  at the university of &lt;span id="lw_1211529734_0"&gt;Luxembourg&lt;/span&gt;?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;The location  of the
university of &lt;span id="lw_1211529734_1"&gt;luxembourg&lt;/span&gt; in the heart of &lt;span id="lw_1211529734_2"&gt;Europe&lt;/span&gt;,its international
environment,the involvement of an international faculty and a wide
network of business community members are factors that will provide me with international skills and experience to anable me &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font&gt;to compete on the global market These&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font&gt; are some of raisons why i chose to
study Entrepreurship at your Institution&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Another raison is the
cours concept:optimal balance between theory and practice is exactly
what i am looking for . The fact that i will  have practical
experience of daily business practice increases my motivation,because
the practical part of the programme will show us the difficulties
that Entrepreneurs may encounter and will provide us with skills and
experiences to deal with obstacles.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;The uniqueness and the
duration of your Entrepreneurship curriculum are other factors that
lead to chose your institution&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;I think your programme is
very special because it provides knowledge not only in
Eutrepreneurship but also in innovation management.In a global
changing world,innovation is very important to create a competitive
advantage.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;In Addtion the proramme
does not last more than two semesters and this is ideal for me in
terms of duration,because i do not wish to join a Master in
Entrepreneurship that will last more than three semesters &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;After my study, i will use
the knowledge that i will gain to continue to work on our current
Jatropha-projet,to help to establish businesspartnership between
european and african firms and Entrepreneurs  . I also want work
together with Lux-Business Academy on an Idea that can help others
young Entrepreneurs on the african continent and establish global
partnership. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;  
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;I am
convinced that Entrepreneuship is one of the way to reduce  poverty
and your program will surely provide me the suitable knowledge and
know how that i need not only to improve our current projects,but
also to transform my other ideas into new applications and also help
others people.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;Sincerely
yours&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My Name&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I am writing to apply for the advertised
PhD position in the project entitled &lt;i&gt;***&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;As you see in my CV, I have been working on
my thesis entitled &lt;i&gt;âAlgae To Energy: A Thorough Investigation Of Biogas
Production And With Ultrasound Pretreatment Of Red Algae of The Baltic Sea To
Eliminate Environmental Degradation And To Explore Endless Source Of Energyâ &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;to obtain the degree MSc in Environmental
Science from ***, what is expected by June 2008. Anaerobic
digestion, biogas and GHG are my particular areas of interests what drive me to
conduct my research activities in similar field. Presently, just after finishing
the first batch experiment to investigate biodegradation potential of algae, I
have been working on continuous stirred reactors with the homogenized algae,
autoclaved and algae pretreated with ultrasound and four parallel batch
experiments with same co-digested substrate and treated materials as used in lab-digesters.
I found myself very interested in this field and having a good knowledge in the
entire procedure, plan and monitoring as well as excellent laboratory skill. Just
before my thesis work, I have been conducted investigation on GHGs emission and
measurement from a landfill project where my entire work was highly appreciable.
&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Beside other knowledge on environmental
issues, I have good computer skill and literature searching and sorting skill
what I have been trained from highly skilled professionals at ***
University Library. Moreover, my previous laboratory skills and achievements during
my bachelor in Agriculture allow me to suit for the position.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;However, after reading the advertisement, it
seems to me that this is the appropriate position I have been looking for and
waiting for and I am the suitable candidate for the position. Though the
stipend is not very attractive, nevertheless I would gladly consider the
position, if I am offered, as the research theme covers my interest perfectly. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;To recapitulate, as the Department of Civil
Engineering, *** has important research
activities in these areas, I would like to have the opportunity to develop its
PhD programme in this project, for which I am confident I have the skills,
knowledge and competence. Please donât hesitate to contact me or my enclosed
referees for further quarries, if you have any.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Thank you very much for considering my
application and I look forward to hearing from you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Internship Cover Letter Details</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/InternshipCoverLetterDetails/zmvqk/post.htm</link><pubDate>Sun, 17 Feb 2008 15:32:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:477999</guid><dc:creator>InViVe</dc:creator><description>Any help &amp;quot;fixing&amp;quot; the following cover letter, would be greatly appreciated.

Having discussed it briefly with some of my professors i ended up with this:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &amp;quot;My contact details&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Contact details of the institute&amp;#39;s member responsible for the internship&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Date&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dear Dr. ***,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I am
writing in response to your posting for the *** Internship Program. I am
currently a final year Masterâs student in *** at the University of ***,
and I would like to be considered for the internship position on the *** project. I am particularly interested in working on expanding the
simulation capability currently available within *** whose âevolutionâ I
have followed in the literature. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;My academic background
includes the following relevant graduate courses:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;Computer Programming&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;span&gt;, a course referring to C++
  programming â both object oriented and structured programming - in which I
  received a grade of 9 (on a scale from 0 to 10).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;Advanced Software Engineering&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;span&gt;, a course on design patterns,
  the Single responsibility principle and refactorings (ongoing).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;Advanced Artificial Intelligence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;span&gt;, during which I was taught
  Prolog, Constraint Programming, Constraint Logic Programming (using the
  ECLiPSe platform), planning with constraints (including a project
  concerning mixed initiative temporal planning with constraints), and
  reasoning under uncertainty (MDPs, chapters 13 to 17 of the book
  &amp;quot;Artificial Intelligence, A modern approach&amp;quot; by Stuart Russell
  and Peter Norvig). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;I
  received a grade of 9.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;Neural Networks and Evolutionary
  Algorithms&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;span&gt;, dealing
  with several neural network architectures as well as other machine
  learning approaches, including the first five chapters of the book
  &amp;quot;Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning&amp;quot; by Christopher M. Bishop
  (ongoing)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Other relevant courses from my undergraduate
studies (also in ***) include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;Artificial intelligence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;span&gt;, which covered the first
  twelve chapters of the AIMA textbook (including partial order planning). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;I received a grade of 10.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span&gt;Object oriented programming&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;span&gt;, a course on Java programming
  and UML. I received a grade of 9.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;This semester I will begin working
on my Masterâs Thesis, the topic of which is &amp;quot;***. It involves simulating &amp;quot;...&amp;quot;. In
the future, I plan to pursue a Ph.D. in ***, possibly by
extending my research in my diploma thesis. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;It is my belief that I could
contribute effectively as a member of your program, which in turn would allow
me to continue to pursue my research interests and future academic career. I
consider this internship an ideal opportunity to obtain hands-on experience. Also,
it would greatly benefit me to collaborate with fellow interns and have as my
mentor Mr. ***.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I enclose a recent
curriculum vitae for your attention and I look forward to hearing from you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Thank you for your
consideration. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sincerely,&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;My name &amp;amp; surname&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;--&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;My doubts are as to: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Whether there are any grammar or syntactical errors&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Should the cover letter have information on where i found their program advertisement? For example &amp;quot;&lt;span&gt;I am
writing in response to your posting for the *** Internship Program, of which
I learned through an email from the *** googlegroup.&amp;quot;?&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The part&amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;&lt;span&gt;I am particularly interested in working on expanding the
simulation capability currently available within *** whose âevolutionâ I
have followed in the literature.&amp;quot; &lt;/span&gt;in the first paragraph originally was &amp;quot;&lt;span&gt;I&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;would wish to be considered for the intership
position on the *** project, and if possible for the part of&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; ***&lt;/span&gt;, of which I read and was particularly interested in, in
the paper â***â which was
presented in the *** Workshop on ***.&amp;quot; Which version do you think is better? &lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;If i should include the sentence &amp;#39;&lt;span&gt;Also,
it would greatly benefit me to collaborate with fellow interns and have as my
mentor Mr. ***.&amp;quot; or maybe it sounds &amp;quot;fake&amp;quot; (although it is in fact true!)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;In the original version of this cover letter, the last paragraph was &lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Also, it would greatly
benefit me to have as my mentor Mr. ***, whose career in the *** and *** I think
of very highly, and collaborate with fellow interns, as until this time, I
havenât had the opportunity to work in a multi-member research group. Finally,
travelling and actually staying in the United States has always been one
of my dreams, being an avid traveller, but unfortunately, I havenât been able
to make this trip a reality due to its excessive cost.&amp;quot; Was i right in replacing it?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;Finally, should the courses&amp;#39; information also refer to the teacher who instructed me (especially since one of them has cooperated in the past with the internship&amp;#39;s project mentor), or not?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Thank you in advance for any help given! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;</description></item><item><title>URGENT!!!

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Dear Ms. A,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I was informed by your advertisement on&amp;nbsp;OOO that&amp;nbsp;CCC is now hiring secretary/administration officer position; therefore I would like to show my interested in its by sending my Curriculum Vitae along with this application letter.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;As this moment, I am a new graduate student of&amp;nbsp;AAA University from&amp;nbsp;MMM (VVVi University Campus) and my subject is Business Management with Financial Major. During the period of time, I always have qualified high marks in most of the subjects taken.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Last year I had one-month internship with BBB working in Sales Department. I did learnt some skills which I think it will help me do well in the position above such as translating, communicating and do some short financial report. Moreover, I am not only having ability to prepare a short oral presentation but also do well on computer software. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Since&amp;nbsp;XYZ is a new company, focus on new type of activities (fixed income market) which has potential chance to develop in the future, I saw myself as a candidate who would be so glad to have a chance to be in the staff at XYZ.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I do believe that the chances are equal for all and the purpose of this announcement is finding right people to put in the right place; therefore, I am looking forward to receive your email. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Yours sincerely,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Nguyen, Thu Hien&lt;/P&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
