3. Read the following extracts from letters of application. Match them to the summaries in 1.
I am very keen to work for your company because of its excellent reputation. I do not have the specific
qualifications or experience referred to in your advertisement. However, I am applying because I feel I am able
to make up for this through hard work and willingness to learn.
If you believe in the pursuit of excellence, then I am interested in joining your company. I set high stan-
dards for myself and expect them from others, especially the organisations that I work for. I look forward to an
opportunity to add to the list of already outstanding achievements, which are outlined in my CV.
From my CV, you will see that five years at a chemicals multinational have given me a solid business
background. I am responsible for my department's logistical planning, which has developed my organizational
skills. However, I am now looking for opportunities for further development and responsibility, which my pre-
sent employer cannot offer.
As a commercially aware and linguistically trained university graduate, I have a broad range of employ-
ment experience at blue-chip companies in both the USA and Europe. I am dynamic and creative, with a strong
team spirit and leadership qualities. I have a proven record of working with individuals at all levels through
highly developed interpersonal and communication skills.
