Are these sentences correct? :


"If it was only possible please feel free to contact me " / "If there would only be such a possibility please feel free to contact me"

They're unnatural. What's wrong with "Please feel free to contact me"?
 
But could you please tell me what I could write that would have a similar meaning?
 
A longer sentence is not necessary better. In fact it may make it sound pretentious.
 
But could you please tell me what I could write that would have a similar meaning?

That's difficult because we don't know what you mean. The final part of your original sentence is clear ("Please feel free to contact me") but the opening, in which you talk about possibility, is completely unclear. Please explain the opening part of your sentence.
 
That's the last part of the email in which I'm asking about possibility of working somewhere.
And I wanted to know if sentences like:

[FONT=&quot]"If it was only possible please feel free to contact me "
"If there would only be such a possibility please feel free to contact me"

[/FONT]
are grammatically correct / sound natural? Or what I could possibly possibly write that would have the same meaning?
( I would like to stress that if there is ONLY a chance I would be very thankful for a contact )
[FONT=&quot]

Do you mean something like "Please contact me if you have any [job] vacancies?"
 
Yes but I would like to say it more like :

" I would be more than happy to help so if it was only possible please feel free to contact me "
OR
" I would be more than happy to help so if there would only be such a possibility please feel free to contact me"

And I would like to know if the sentences above sound natural and are grammatically correct?
And if not what could I possibly write to stress that if there is ONLY a chance I would appreciate if they contact me?

Oh all right.

No, I meant to write " if it was only possible" instead of writing whole sentence " if it was only possible to work there "

This is the e-mail:

( (...), I was wondering if it wouldbe possible to work at
the (...).


I would be more than happy to help
and be so excited to learn more about
this place so if it was only possible,
please feel free to contact me.)


So could you please tell me if I could change just " if it was only possible " to something else to keep the sentence order?
Or I can't just do something like that in english. Because if I could I would prefer to write it more like this. And if I could write with it the word "only" or different one to stress that I would be so thankful for contact if there was any way work there.

possibility contact me

" So please if there is / would be such a possibility feel free to contact me. "

( I previously asked about possibility of working somewhere )

Is this sentence grammatically correct / sound natural?
 
Please do not start new threads to ask about the same thing. I have merged your second thread into this one.
 
There is certainly no place for "possible". You can include "only" by saying "Please feel free to contact me, but only if you can offer me a job". I wouldn't actually say that, though! It sounds rather rude.

If you have already applied for a job and you are waiting for a response, a professional phrase would be something like "I look forward to a positive response".

If you have contacted them just to find out if they have any vacancies, you could say something like "Please feel free to contact me if you have any suitable vacancies".
