Dear all,

Im order to apply to a job, I am writing an email with my resume and letter of motivation.

I thought about writing: "Attached please find my resume and my letter of motivation in response to Vacancy Announcement no. ###"

Is that correct?

Thanks

 

The correct word order is "Please find attached my resume etc."

 

Thanks!

What about "in response to Vacancy Announcement no. ###"? Is that correct?

 

"Attached please find my resume" is exactly right.

I'm not familiar with the term "letter of motivation", but if it is a message explaining what interests you about that particular job, then I think your e-mail would be that message. You would begin with, "I have seen your Vacancy Announcement no. ###, and I am very much interested in the position." You would then go on to explain your interest and goals, and you would end the message with "Attached please find my resume."

That, at least, would be the US style.

 

Thanks a lot, Parla.

Just to clarify: I already wrote the LoM (Cover Letter) and the company asks to send it, togheter woth a resume, by e-mail. So, I just need to write down a very short mail of about a couple lines.

That would be:

Dear sir/madam,

Attached please find my reume and my letter of motivation in response to Vacacy Announcement no. ####.

Kindest regards,

edisoncavani

Would it be correct?

 

Like Parla, I am unfamiliar with the term "letter of motivation." I've never heard that before. But I think you might be talking about a "cover letter" for your resume.

 

Motivation letter is just fine.

 

Thank you all, but the motivation letter is not the issue here

Would this e-mail text be fine?

Dear sir/madam,

Attached please find my resume and my letter of motivation in response to Vacacy Announcement no. ####.

Kindest regards,

edisoncavani

 

I've suggested changing "kindest regards", since you don't know these people; otherwise, I think it's fine. Just be sure that you spell everything correctly.

 

There are many alternatives for the same thing: cover letter, covering letter, motivation letter, motivational letter or a letter of motivation.

 

Many thanks, Parla. I'll check the spelling three times before sending the e-mail


Thank to everibody else too

 

Thank you for your reply , Parla

<< Question removed because it is now in a thread of its own. >>
