Subject: AA job opening
Sent: March 15th, 20xx Hi Ms. Chang, The job opening in the HiTech Inc. is: | Job Title | Company | Contact Information | | Administrative Assistant | HiTech, Taipei office | Mr. Kim Anderson, HR director
kanderson@hitech.com | To apply, please contact Mr. Anderson directly. | Direction : Respond to the email as if you have received the e-mail from the A-Hunter Company. In your email to Mr. Anderson, write at least ONE statement about your capability, and TWO statements about your previous work experience. | 破題：此類email的回覆不是天馬行空自己想寫什麼就寫什麼，而是要跟據題目的要求，比方說此題： ONE statement about your capability _______________________ (computer skills) TWO statements about your experience _______________________ (3-year VP assistant / job duties) Ideas想好了之後，就可以根據想法來將email成型了。 參考答案： Dear Mr. Kinderson, Please consider me as an applicant for your advertised full-time position as administrative assistant in your HiTech Taipei office. My word-processing, and computer skills, which you require, are excellent. I am completely conversant with the current versions of Microsoft Windows, and Office applications. Before my move here three weeks ago, I was employed for three years as assistant to the VP of Marketing of Salesforce Inc. in Hong Kong on a full-time basis. My duties there included all office word processing, mailing list management, and such general office functions as telephone answering, faxing, and photocopying. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, | 另外，要強調的是，句型用法和用字選擇這部份的美化，也是評分要點之一。若email 內呈現的僅是有寫就好，靠一些文字拼湊起來，沒句型之外，用字也很普通，這樣其實無法有效呈現出意思的。請看以下例子： 求職信範例之原始寫法： Dear Ms. Phillips, I want to apply for the Project Manager position you put in the newspaper. I have past experience in a consulting firm and in a bookstore. I'd like to work in an international environment, and I believe I can do it well. I'd like to talk to you about the details of this job, so please email or call me. Sincerely, | 缺點：段落不分明 ， 且用字一般 ， 句型簡單但無變化 ， 內容也不太明確 ， 看不出有當 project manager 之實力 。 求職信範例之加強寫法 Dear Ms. Phillips, I want to let you know that I am quite interested in the position of Project Manager that you recently advertised. I have had two years' experience as a project manager in a consulting firm and about a year as the manager of a large Hong Kong bookstore. I want to work in an international environment and I believe I am well qualified for this position. I would very much like to further discuss this position with you and I am available for an interview. Please contact me by email or phone. Sincerely, | 職場能力應用：email 職場書寫和應用的能力，普遍性和重要性不用再多提，現在的網路世界中，大家也一定知道公司內外訊息的溝通 80% 以上都是靠 email 了。故將 email 書寫這部份的能力練熟，不僅可達到更有效的溝通，也可以讓 email 的接收者瞭解到您的內涵與書寫實力喔！ | |
