Dear Dr.Li,
In searching for employment opportunities on the Internet,I learned of a job vacancy in the Public Affairs Reporting Section of your newspaper. I believe that my qualifications match the requirements you have listed for the position.
As a journalism major at Xuanwu University in Nanjing, my academic training has enabled me to develop my writing and editing skills,particularly in the reporting of public affairs. At college,English, Reporting Public Affairs, Advertising and Public Relations have been my favorite subjects. I would like to utilize my interests and training to the fullest through working on a newspaper as well-known as your own.
My resume reflects my experience as a journalistic intern with two newspapers in Nanjing. While working there I did both research work and reporting. I greatly enjoyed work as a professional reporter and the challenge of writing to deadlines,all of which I successfully met.
I have won several awards for my journalistic work and was admitted to the Journalists’ Association of Jiangsu Province last year. I wasthe vice chairman of the Students’ Union in my university for two years. The enclosed resume provides further information about my experience and background. I wonder if it would be possible for us to meet one of these days so that you could learn more about me and I could find out more about the specifics of the job. Please call me anytime on (025)9709399 Monday through Friday. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely, Hong Qin
