Angry Edit my cover please

I am writing to express my interest in your recently advertised position for a Sale Executive which was posted on the website Khmer.ws - the job, career and recruiting website for Cambodia (http://www.khmer.ws). Attached with this letter is my resume, which further details my previous work experience and qualifications.

I am a freshman who will graduate from the Institute of Foreign Languages (IFL). Prior to entering IFL, I graduated from the National University of Management (NUM) with a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting in 2004. Presently, I am working as a Sales Executive at First Cambodia Co., Ltd for the last four months. I am responsible for direct selling of the company including profit and loss responsibility, customer growth, revenue production and personnel development. My recent position allows me to further develop and strengthen my communication and interpersonal skills.

Although I am enjoying my present job, I am looking out for new opportunities in the same field. I am keen on joining your company and becoming one member of the creative team sincerely and I am confident that I can perform the work effectively and efficiently.

I look forward to meeting you to discuss your needs and my ability to meet them in more detail. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. I can be reached at: 012 365454

Thank you for your time and consideration.

The phrase "previous experience" is redundant (unnecessarily repetitive).
