dear sir:
four years as a senior clerk in sales department of the new world products company have, i believe,given me the experience to qualify for the job you advertised in thursday\'s newspaper.
since 1981 i have been responsible for all office details in the administration of sales, including writing much of the correspondence. in the course of my work, i have become familiar with the various sales territories, and have also in my spare time experience of handling business problems other than my proper sphere.
the years before i was employed at the new world, i was a secretary for long brother, an accounting firm. there i became familiar with accounting terms and procedures．
i was graduated at wah yan college, in june 1974. i am twenty-five years of age and single．
i am leaving my present position because i can use my capabilities more fully in a position with wider scope. mypresent employer knows of my ambition and is helping me to find a new place.
may i see you at your office to tell you more about myself and show you just how well i can do the work you require.
yours faithfully,

頃閱星期四xx報，獲悉貴公司招聘人才。本人曾擔任新世界產品公司銷售部高級職員四年之久，自信有充分工作經驗，可擔任貴公司所招聘的職務。
