Gentlemen,
Because I believe that my sales background fits me for the position you advertised in Thursday's newspaper, I ask that you consider my qualification.
I was graduated from Beijing Commercial College in July 1993. My experience has included two year as salesman in the Men's Clo- thing Department for DangDai; and three years in the Men's Shop for ShiDu, 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.
Truly yours.
