Post subject: Need help with application |
|
|
Hi,
I am trying to write an application as Game Master at Blizzard. I don't
have any experience in writing formal british english (I am german), so I
want to ask if somebody would be so kind and check for grammar or maybe
give some suggestions?
Thanks ;-)
Application as Game Master DE
Dear Sir/Madam
with reference to your advertisement on wow-europe.com I am writing to
apply as Game Master (DE). At the moment I am a student at Technical
University Darmstadt and working on my Bachelors degree in computer
technologie.
Since role-playing-games have allways been my favourite hobby, I now am
developer and administrator of my own german browser-based RPG with more
than 4.000 active players. In its now allmost two years of existance I was
able to gain wide experience with people and in supporting communities in
a team. I am familiar with all sorts of community tools.
Furthermore I enjoy working with people very much, and working at a
company like Blizzard allways has been one of my dreams, since I want to
use my skills in a productive and enjoyable environment.
Finally I enclose my CV and a copy of my educational qualification.
I would appriciate the opportunity to discuss matters further at a
personal interview
Yours faithfully,
Stefan Buhrmester

Usually a CV will detail qualifications, unless you a enclosing a copy of a
certificate - in which case you should say so.

Run it through a spell-check routine...

almost
4,000 (Americans and Britains use the comma, not the period)
Otherwise it looks fine
