Thank you very much for your help.
wow really!!! why do you think it is flattering? Maybe I shouldn't say that then. would you suggest a better of say it without flattering. it wasn't really my intention, I just wanted to let them know that I know how popular and how successful they have been throughout the world.

Such a statement is common enough in employment applications, and I find it excessive only in that it is too vaguely and grandiosely laudatory. I am familiar with Unilever, but not that it has any outstanding humanitarian goals. Something like this would be more appropriate:
I am attracted to Unilever because of its great reputation as one of the world's leaders in consumer
I am attracted to Unilever because of its great reputation as one of the world's leaders in consumer

Be as specific and concrete you can.
eg I want to
