Hi, there ^^
I have read your COVER LETTER. It looks fine and neatly. However, there are still a lot of common mistakes that you need to correct them right away before giving your letter the HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER:

1/ Name your university. Despite the fact that the HR manager will find that in your RESUME/CV, you should also interpret that again in your cover letter. If you do not do so, the manager would think that your university is not a famous one.

2/ Where do you work at a project collaborator ? Name it, too.

3/ Do not exaggerate too much. Your writing style is OK and polished, but it still lacks of evidence about how you work, you just general it all. Furthermore, some of them are not relevant to the work you are going to apply for. Remove them and replace with another suitable ones.

4/ " I appreciate working in an international team and I can deal with administrative duties competently. Several stays abroad enhanced my cultural sensibility and provided me with an open and tolerant mind with respect to diversity. "... Again, don't ask them what they will do for you but instead state what you can offer for them not vice versa.

5/ One common mistake when most people sum up their cover letter is the salary or the money. Remembering that asking for extra wage only available when you are a professional worker or an advanced employee, who has a lot of working experiences and qualifications/projects. However, even if you are a professional one, you should never mention the income in your letter. Meanwhile, you just only graduate from your school, what a demand !! You ask the organization too much.

6/ About the writing style, it is fine but not very perfect at all. When you come to list all your working experience or skills or abilities or even job history, you should bullet and numbering them orderly. Therefore, the manager won't have to spend a lot time in finding your skills/ abilities. By the way, using key word is also a very effective approach to highlight yourself. That is the best way for people to read and easily stand out from the crowd when they have to handle a bunch of thousands letters/CV/RESUME everyday.

7/ One last thing is that: you should check the grammar and your vocabulary. There are some mistakes in your writing grammar. Additionally, using simple and easily understood word would not be a recommendation when writing a letter especially a cover letter for a job. Google or do research about vocab/ term/ glossary to learn more about it. You should use some sophisticated words but always bear in mind: Do it in moderation.

Yeah, that 's it ^^. Hope you will find the above tips useful. Good luck to you, my friend
