i saw your advert for the post of client Services Executive in yesterday's newspaper and I would like to apply for the position. As you can see from my attached cv, i have been working for my current company for over two years. I joined Macintyre and Co in 2007 and since then. I had many opportunities to develop my skills. However, l have been considering a career change with a new challenge for a number of months and this seems like the perfect moment to make that move. I see from recent press reports that your company have been expanding its operations in China and therefore I would like to draw your attention to my degree in Oriental Studies and Mandarin which completed in 2006. Combined with my current MBA, which I have been studying for part-time at the local university, I feel that i would be an asset to your company. Please also note that my current manager has agreed to write a reference and can be contacted on 0207 857 6785. I look forward to hearing from you.
