Example of Apllication Letter

Mrs. Dwy Novitasari
Personal Department
Indonesia Stock Exchange
Empire Building Plaza 2nd, floor
52 Jln. Jend. Sudirman
Jakarta 10002

Dear Mrs Dwy,

With reference to your advertisement for a senior secretary in Jakarta Times on 27 April, I would like to apply for the post.

I am 25 years old and was educated at International Secretarial College. My education and secretarial experience have given me excellent secretarial skills. After graduating from International Secretarial College, I enrolled at  Indonesia Secretarial Institute and I received my degree in secretarial sciences. I was also awarded a special citation for speed and accuracy in typing.

Since 1990 I have been working as a secretary at International Mills Realty where I had responsibility for all business correspondence. Unfortunately, the company is moving its head office to Surabaya and I have therefore decided to look for a new job in Jakarta.

I would be available for an interview on any day after 20 February and I would be able to take up a new post on any date from 1 March.

Mr. Robert and Mr. Wilson are willing to give me references.

I look forward to having your reply.

Yours sincerely.

Angela Mawrine
