Grammar errors--Cover letter

Hello, below is a cover letter for a job application.

Could someone please fix any errors, improve it, or suggest anything? Thank you greatly for your time.

-----

To Whom It May Concern:



I am pleased to have the opportunity to apply for the role of Marketing Assistant, which was advertised on X.



I am a business graduate, who majored in both marketing and sales. I was approached for the honours program, but I believe experience is more important. I seek an exciting career in marketing, as this is not only my passion but also my key strength.



I gained experience in marketing by completing a nine-week internship with X, during which I created and implemented a brand project, interfaced with both external and internal customers, and developed and maintained both a company website and a customer database. My greatest learning experience was realising the importance of business relationships.



Additionally, while I was at X, I refined my skills on computer applications and produced presentations using PowerPoint. My communication skills are first-rate, and I am able to work efficiently, having successfully organised my time between University projects, my sporting commitments and my part-time jobs.



I enjoy working in groups, and I have had much experience in this area, as I have always been a part of team sports and the leader of group projects at University.



Most importantly, I am intelligent, passionate and self-motivated individual, who would love the opportunity to work as a marketing assistant.



Thank you for your attention. I look forward to hearing from you.





Yours faithfully,

Anon

Hello, Clive,

thank you for taking the time to proofread my letter. You provided some subtle, yet important, ideas, which I have taken into consideration. Yes, where I live, people generally enclose a resume; Since I'm sending this via email with both the letter and resume attached, I should think it's unecessary to say the resume is enclosed. What do you think?
