dear sir，
i would like to ask you to consider my qualification for the position in sales that you advertised in last week#39;s newspaper.
i graduated from the college of business in june of 1986. since that time i have been taking night courses at polytechnics in sales techniques and mass media advertising.
i have worked as a vehicle salesman for the ford co. for the past three years. at present i am their chief salesman and account for over one half of the sales. before my present employment, i worked for the chains department store as a salesclerk in the electrical appliance section. we worked mainly on commission and i was able to earn a substantial amount although i was very young.
i would like to make a change now because i feel that i can go no further in my present job, i feel that my ability and my training should enable me to advance into a better and more responsible position, and it appears that this will not be forthcoming at my present position.
if you would like to know more about my ability, i can be available for an interview at any time convenient to you.
sincerely yours,

敬啟者：
貴公司上週在xx報刊登廣告，招聘推銷員一職，我擬應聘，敬請給予考慮。
我於一九八六年六月商學系畢業。此後，即在理工學院選讀銷售技術與大眾媒介廣告課程。
過去三年，在威廉福特公司擔任汽車推銷員、目前擔任該公司銷售主任，已有一年半之久。擔任此職前，曾在澄士百貨公司推銷電器，以賺取佣金。雖然我仍年青，但自感有能力賺取實際利潤。
自感目前工作發展不大，擬改變一下目前工作環境，故自信個人能力和所受訓練，似應獲得較佳之工作。就我目前工作，將來無多大發展前途。
倘若閣下願意接見本人以瞭解我的能力，我將隨時候教。
xx啟
