Subject: Writing Position with Your Professional Writing Team

Dear 301 Technical Writing Team Leaders,

Do you wish to have a hardworking, responsible and reliable individual on you professional writing team? If so, please consider my application. I am currently in the process of completing my second degree in computer science. I believe my experience in various big companies and related English course work make me a suitable candidate for you team. I have read your biographies and I believe our similar academic pursuits can create a spark and push this team towards success.

Throughout my first degree, I have taken some English related courses and have learned different writing genres. For example, Narrative, descriptive and persuasive writings. I am very familiar with the expectations of completing a task, and I always complete them on time with extra time to help my team members. Throughout my work experiences with big companies, I was placed onto different teams, and I realized how important communication was. In a professional setting, messages need to be clear while presented in a professional manner. Luckily, I had wonderful teammates/coworkers who I can now call friends, teaching me the right way to communicate with others.

I may not be the best writer out there, but I believe it can be overshadowed by my traits of being responsible, reliable and hardworking. Furthermore, I believe we can create a spark and develop chemistry and become friends and a successful team.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. I look forward to hearing from you! Please email me at ericzubc@student.ubc.ca

Sincerely,

Eric Zhang
