Dear Mr. N,
Please consider
me for the position of Assistant Director of

contribution personnel management makes to the
overall
objectives
of
the
company.

第一步:介绍消息来源
介绍消息来源实际上是
求职
信的开篇交待句,
它可使
求职
< br>信显得自然、
顺畅;
而不介绍
消
息来源,会使收信人感到意外、突然,文章也缺乏过渡、照应,本文消息来源可作如下介
绍:
Dear manager,
I learned from the
newspaper that your company wanted to hire an
English
translator.
第二步:表明
求职
< br>心愿
介绍完消息来源后,
应向收信人表明自己的
求职
心愿,
即写信的目的,
本文

心愿可
作如下介绍:
I'm interested in this job very much.
I'd like to get this job.
第三步:介绍个人简历
某单位需要新人,
求职
人也有
求职
心愿,
但这并不
意味着这项工作非你莫属。
如果你没
有干好这项工作的经历、实
力,也是难以适应的。因此,介绍个人简历是必不可少的。本文
个人简历可介绍如下:<
/p>
Now
I'd like to introduce myself to you. My name is Li
Ping. I'm 30 years old.
I'm
180
cm
tall.
I'm
healthy.
I
like
swimming,

dancing
in
my
spare
time.
I
graduated from Beijing University in ,I went to
work in Nantong Middle
School. In
1996
,
I began to work in
Suzhou Middle School and I have worked there
until now.
第四步:摆出
求职
优势
<
/p>
仅有一定的工作经历而没有自身的优势和特长,
也很难求得称心如
意的工作。
因此,
求
职
时应表明自己除了具有一定的工作经历之外,
还具有一定的优势和特长,
这样才能稳操胜
券。本文可通过如下方法摆出自己的优势:
I work
hard and I can get along well with others. I'm
good at English and
especially
my
spoken
English
is
very
good.
I've
translated
many
Chinese
books
into
English.
I
can
understand
Japanese
and
I
can
talk
to
foreigners
in
Japanese
freely.
第五步:提出获职打算
丰富的工作经验,
一定的优势和特长,
只能代表过去和现在的情况,
如果
获职后自以为
心愿已了,
从此高枕无忧,马虎从事,那也是得不
到用人单位认可的。
显然表明获职后努力
工作的决心是感动用人
单位的领导从而顺利谋得此项工作的重要一环。
本文获职打算可作如
下介绍:
If you agree with me, I'll work hard
and try to be a good translator.
第六步:请求答复联系
如果单位领导同意了你的
求职
要求,
你必然要请他和你联系,
以便你及时做好准备,
到
用人单位应聘或报到。<
/p>
为准确起见,
请求答复联系时你还应当提供你的通讯地址、
邮政编码、
电话号码、电子信箱等。本文答复联系的内容可作如下介绍
:
If
you agree with me, please write a letter to me or
phone me. I live at No.1
Renmin Road,
Suzhou city. My telephone number is 3654371.
第七步:表明感激之情
无论你的请求是否能够得到满意的答复,
你给用人单位写信就是给对方添了麻烦,
因此
你应向对方表
明感激之情。本文可这样来表明感激之情:
Thank you very much.
上述七步内容联成一个整体,再加
上下面的信尾,就成为一封完整的
