Dear Sir, Madam,
I am very interested in this job opportunity and I am certain that I can deliver to your fullest satisfaction.
I am a native German who has recently become a freelancer, focusing on translations, copywriting and proofreading. I have a background as a PR and communications manager in an internationally operating company. In this position, writing and proofreading were essential skills. Communication and languages have been part of my life and work ever since I left University. I especially enjoy working with (written) language - even more so if it is my native tongue.
When asked to proofread a document, I usually start by reading the whole document to get a feeling for it. Then, I start editing and correcting where necessary. After about a day, I read through it again to make sure it is absolutely flawless. I repeat this process until I am 100% satisfied with the result.
I realize that I am new to this site and that there is no feedback on my profile yet. I would, however, appreciate it if you gave me a chance to start building up my reputation. I truly believe that my qualities and experience make me an ideal candidate for this job and I have no doubt that I can add value to your company.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss my experience and qualifications with you in more detail.
Yours sincerely,
Miriam
