Mr. John Doe Director, Library Services Department of Interior 100 Monument Ave. Richmond, VA 24557

Dear Mr. Doe:

Thank you for the offer that you extended for a position as a research assistant in the Department of Interior extension library. The offer was very attractive, and I had much to consider in reaching my decision.

Unfortunately, I am declining your offer to take a position as researcher at the Library of Congress. Their specialized resources and location in Washington, where my family resides, were the deciding factors in this difficult decision.

I appreciate your interest in me and wish to express again my gratitude for your courtesy and consideration.

Sincerely,

(Sign your name)

Exercise 83

Read and translate this application and curriculum vitae. Answer the questions below.

Sales Recruitment and 20 Bright St.

Training Manager Edinburgh

W.&T. Sales Limited May 24, 1996

21 Conduit ST.

London W.1

England

In reply to your advertisement in today’s “Daily Telegraph”, I am interested in becoming a salesman for your company.

As you can see from the enclosed curriculum vitae, I have some previous selling experience in various and very competitive fields of medication and cosmetics. However I would like to change to industrial products since I believe they offer a greater potential. Your 6 months’ training scheme should certainly help me devote my abilities to your company particularly since my educational qualification are higher than those you require.

My present position is subject to one month’s notice, after which I would be able to train in London and, if necessary, relocate to any part of the country. I’m looking forward to a personal meeting.

I thank you for considering my application.

Yours faithfully,

Peter S.Green
