Ms. Gale Games

Cambridge 5 October 2004
Dear Ms. Games,
I would like to apply for the position of a Senior Sales Manager advertised in
The Economist on 4 October 2004.
My work experience has familiarized me with many of the challenges of the sales domain. I am sure that this, together with my education and my understanding of the needs and expectations of the IT market, would be extremely relevant to the position. Moreover, my fluent French and proficient Spanish would be very helpful in developing the business in these countries.
As you will notice on my enclosed resume, the position you are offering involves the issues I have been in charge of for these years. I would be pleased to come for an interview at any time convenient to you.
