Dear Sir or Madam
Re: Administrative assistant

I am interested in the administrative assistant position of Shanghai General Motor Co., which was advertised in XXX.

I will be graduating from Shanghai University with a Bachelor’s degree in International Economics and Trade in June 2004, and I hope to obtain an employment opportunity in such a famous multinational company as General Motor. There are so many distinguished employees and very advanced training systems in the company. It is definitely a great attraction for me. I am an outgoing, responsible, attentive, creative, hardworking person. My English level is good having no difficulty in listening, speaking, reading and writing. In addition, I have excellent communication skills. I always maintain a mature, gracious and professional manner when communicating with people, even when difficulties arise. Therefore, though I am a freshman, my personality, my part-time related job experience, and my recently completed education make me well qualified for this position.

To further acquaint you with the specifics of my background I am enclosing my resume. I hope you will consider me for this position. I look forward to meeting with you and discussing my qualifications in more detail.

Sincerely,
SharonShi

Thank you very much for your help. I'm too careless to notice that. I'll correct it immediately.
