I would very be happy
Is the word order correct in written language - a letter accompanying a CV?
I would very be happy to work for you
If it's an error, it's rather common: just google "to very be" or "would very be". I have the sensation instead, that it could be British, and perhaps a bit archaic. Opinions? If a reference could be found, I'd really be grateful. (Was this an error now?)

I would be very happy to work for you - grammatically correct, especially if you have to write a formal letter.
In my opinion would very be happy is neither correct word oder nor common in British English

This is the proper word order in both American and British English.
However, I would probably not say this when accepting a job. I would suggest that this is a bit better.
I look forward to working for you.
