Dear Hiring Manager,
I am thrilled to be applying for the opportunity to become a Translator. I would develop and expand this ability even further throughout my education and working career. The nuances of language fascinate me, and to be able to have work that allows me to explore them and marinate in them each and every day would be a true pleasure and a privilege.
I am also able to speak clearly and effectively and write tight and readable prose. During summers as a college student, I worked as an intern at the United Nations, translating political speeches and legal documents from one language to another. I would also assist immigrants and foreign-speaking clients at Centurion Legal Group. With this experience, I can be relied on to translate technical documents like corporate earnings reports, instruction manuals for products and forecasts of upcoming market trends. I can also translate more colloquial material, like staff emails and translate back and forth between Foundry's employees and visiting foreign clients.
I am deeply grateful for your time and attention in considering me for this position. Foreign language skills are immensely useful in a complex, interconnected and global business world, and I would be honored to apply my abilities to help grease the wheels of your business relationships and assist Foundry in attaining yet greater success.
Sincerely,
Vu
