gentlemen,

because i believe that my sales background fits me for position you advertised , i ask that you consider my qualifications.
i was graduated from wah yan college in june1979, i am at present taking courses in business management organisation.
my experience has included one year as salesman in the men"s clothing department of brook and kerith; and two years in the men"s shop on the globe department store, where i am still employed.
my reason for wishing to make a change at this time is that there seems no opportunity for advancement in my present position, and i feel that my ability and training,as well as my interest in my work , should lead to advancement and a higher salary.
i am happy to refer you upon your request people who can tell you of my work and my character.
if you will grant me an interview, i shall be glad to call on every thursday after three o"clock, my only free time in business hours.

very truly yours
