Sentence Modifiers using "which"
I would like to know if the following sentence is APPROPRIATE in a letter of interest for a job application. I am having doubts about the sentence in bold, particularly the underlined clause with "which." It is my understanding that this type of clauses are not appropriate in formal writing; however, I have seen many writers use them. Would this make my statement weak or stronger? Please let me know.
