A friend you made while you were studying abroad has written to ask you for help in finding a job in your country. You have heard about a job in a local company that might be suitable for him/her. Write a letter to this friend. In your letter • tell your friend about the job and what sort of work it involves • say why you think the job would be suitable for him/her • explain how to apply for the job
I’ve very good news! Just hours ago, I found a job opportunity in Canada that might suit you.
This
job is exactly what you are looking for.
A friend of mine, who is working at a major car manufacturing company, told me that the company is looking to hire a senior accountant. They are looking for an accountant who is experienced in invoicing, bookkeeping, as well as preparing financial reports for the management.
I know that you have spent the last
ten years working for one of the biggest accounting firms in the UK. In my opinion, the job requirements perfectly match your experience. The salary is also
quite good, and you will certainly like their working environment.
If you are interested, just send me your resume and I will forward it to my friend. You also
need to prepare a brief cover letter listing all the projects that you worked on.
I highly recommend that you must send the requirements as soon as possible. Wish you all the best and I am pretty sure that you will make it to the interview.Submitted by adv.peeyusharora on

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
