I have seen your advertisement for a personal assistant/secretary in Bangkok Post and would like to apply for the
post.
I am 28 years old and was educated at Redhill Comprehensive School and the South Surrey College. I have an
HND in Business Studies and have also passed the Pitman Examination (Stage 111) in shorthand and typing. I
studied French to ‘A’ level and can speak it fluently.
For the last six years I have been working as the personal assistant to Mr. Mares, the Finance Director of E.M.F. of
Croydon. But I came to Thailand on my business trip 4 months ago. I found Thailand a good place for working. I,
therefore, decided to look for a new job in Bangkok.
Before joining E.M.F., I worked for one year as the personal Secretary to Mr. Handley, Marketing Manager of
Universal Toys in Reading. Both Mr. Mares and Mr. Handley are willing to give me references.
I, staying with a friend in Payathai, am available for an interview at your convenience. I would be able to take up a
new post on any date from 1 October. I look for ward to your reply.
