Question

Hello to all,I’d kindly like to ask you to help me a little with my covering letter. I’m just asking to check the grammar (articles, phrases and so on). You know it’s a shame to reply to a vacancy with poorly written CV or CL. So I hope this wonderful forum society will help me :-)Thank you so much in advance.

Well I have some problems with my browser and can't upload the file here. The CL is located at http://www.2shared.com/file/4736492/98ac7c39/CL_for_check.html

Hi,
Many people don't like to click on links like that.
For once, I tried it. But it took me to more screens that asked me to click again, and I also started getting unwanted pop-ups that I didn't like. So, I gave up.

Why don't you just retype your letter directly into this thread?

Best wishes, Clive

Thank you Clive. I'll post the letter here.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am very interested in the Systems Analyst (Job ID ____) position advertised at HotJobs.com. I’m 23 years old, obtained my master’s degree from the University_name two years ago. Thanks to my excellent results and fruitful scientific work during studies I deserved an opportunity to continue my education as academic exchange student at the Another_University_name.
Though I have never worked on the position of systems analyst I believe that my background and experience will make me a very competitive candidate for this position.
With the degree in Information Systems and Technologies I have a complete understanding of the full life cycle of a software development process. At my current position of QA engineer at the Company_name I’m involed in such software development activities as requirements analysis, design, testing and preparing documentation.
My knowledge of C++ and Pascal high level programming languages was considerably improved during scientific effort at the university. I have skills in modeling and projecting activities using Unified Modeling Language, IDEF methodologies and ER diagrams. Therewith I’m able to write simple SQL queries to the Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server databases. Finally I have an experience in writing a software documentation: functional and technical specifications, functional requirements, user and administrator guides.
The attached resume of mine will provide you more information about my work experience and skills. I look forward to meeting with you in person. Many thanks for your time and consideration.

Yours sincerely,
Name surname.
