Dear Mr. Huang,
I am interested in applying for a position as a electronic engineer at CenturyCom. I found the position advertised at the placement office at Fudan University. I will graduate in June in electronical engineering and hope to start my career at that time. During the past four years I have had a good deal of academic experience in communication technology. As an active member of the Fudan Society of Computer Communication, I learned much about the practical challenges mechanical engineers face each day, and about the strategic significances of collaborating with fellow team members. In my position with Excelcom, I was able to test and sharpen the skills I was learning at school and use them on a regular basis. In addition to the responsibilities noted in my resume, I designed an innovative software program that compiled data used by other firms and interpreted the results for the sales division at Excelcom.
My experience of working with others has given me confidence in my interpersonal skills and decision-making abilities, particularly in the area of computer communication. And I believe that making a contribution to a general goal goes much further than simply possessing skills; one must have the ability to work toward a consensus everyone can live with.
I am available for an interview at any time convenient to you. I can be reached by phone at 48202928. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely, Pan Yanggang

Dear Mr. Chan
Application for the Post of Management Trainee
I am writing to apply for the post of Management Trainee, which was advertised on the Student Affairs Office notice board of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University on 8 December 2008.
My working experience at Lucky Star Garment Manufactory Limited improved my leadership skills, communication skills and ability to work in a team environment. I have fluent spoken and written English. I also have fluent spoken and written Mandarin, and can therefore work in mainland China.
Currently I am studying a B.A. in Management at the Hong Kong Polytechnic
University, graduating in 2009. Subjects which I am studying that are relevant to the post of Management Trainee include Operations Management, Human Resources Management, Accounting, Marketing and Strategic Management.
My final year project is entitled Knowledge Management Practices in HK. Carrying out this project has improved my communication skills, my leadership skills and my ability to lead and supervise subordinates effectively. I have also learned how to run a project from the planning stage to its completion.
During my studies I have held the post of Executive in the Management Society. While leading and organising Management Society activities I have improved my ability to lead and supervise subordinates effectively, ability to work under pressure and ability to work in a team environment.
Working for Wong And Lim Consulting appeals to me because it has a good reputation and it provides excellent training. Your organisation produces a
high-quality service, and I can contribute to this with my leadership skills and my ability to work under pressure.
I am available for interview at any time. I can be contacted most easily on the mobile phone number given above. I look forward to meeting you. Yours sincerely
