MEMORANDUM
To: Dr. Erika Patterson
From: Alirod Ameri <alirod2011@gmail.com>
Date: 25 May 2021
Subject: Posting of application letter on blog
As you requested to be completed by May 26th, I have posted my application letter on my blog (blogs.ubc.ca/alirod). I have posted both the content of the letter directly in the blog post, and have attached a link to download the Word file as well.
This letter was written in accordance with the criteria specified in the syllabus, and the guidance provided in the course textbook, Technical Communication. In the letter, I outline my desire to join a writing team in this class. I argue that, considering my skills and experience, I would be an excellent and invaluable team member.
Some of the key points highlighted in my letter:
– I am a 4th year student in the Faculty of Science, graduating in November 2021.
– I have taken several writing-intensive courses in the past.
– My past work experience, such as serving as a Communications Assistant, has strengthened my professional and workplace writing competencies.
– In the future, I hope to attend law school. This course will allow me to develop skills which are relevant to that career path.
