Dear Ms. Siregar,

Your advertisement in March 30 issue of the ‘Republika’ was attractive because I believe I have the proven skills you are requiring for an administrative assistant.

I am Linda and I’m 22 years old. I recently completed a three course Apple Computer System. These specialization skills have proven valuable in my work for the past eight months as an assistant to the chief accountant at Galaxy Building.

Since ‘proven skills’ are best explained in person I would appreciate an interview with you. Please phone me

in the afternoon between and 5 p.m. at [phone] to let me know the day and time most convenient for you.

Sincerely,

Linda
