Subject: Application for any post.
 


Dear Sir/Madam;
 


I am writing in response to the job vacancy announcement of the above mentioned post. The position requirements and my skills are a perfect match.
 


As you'll see on my enclosed resume, I have the educational background, professional experience, and track record for which you are searching. In addition, I am motivated and enthusiastic, and would appreciate the opportunity to contribute to your firm's success.
 


I can promise that meeting with me will not be a waste of your time and I will make myself available at your convenience, during or outside of normal business hours.
 


Sincerely,
 


Mustafa Phone No: +93 (0) 799 xxx xxx


I think I'll give it a miss, Mustafa, without even opening your enclosure which claims to be (and actually might be) a C.V; at the same time, I'm trying to picture the applicant who considers himself fit for any post, and is so sure about it that he feels it will be worth my while calling him on his phone in Afghanistan about it.
