Dear sir,

　　I would like to ask you to consider my qualification for the position in sales that you advertised in .

　　I graduated from the college of business administration in june of 1996. since that time i have been taking night courses at city polytechnics in sales techniques and advertising.

　　For the past four years, i have worked as a shipping salesman for maersk, one of the world largest shipping company. at present I am their chief salesman and account for over one quarter of the sales in asia. before my present employment, I worked for abc chains boutique as a salesclerk. we worked mainly on commission and I was able to earn a substantial amount although I was very young.

　　I would like to make a change now because I feel that I can go no further in my present job, I feel that my ability and my training should enable me to advance into a better and more responsible position, and it appears that this will not be forth-coming at my present position.

　　If you would like to know more about my ability, I can be available for an interview at any time convenient to you.

　　Sincerely yours
