Dear Mr Smith,
I am writing to you in regard to the possibility of working overseas. I am Gonzalo Fuentes chief manager of the Department of Construction Sciences in Brisbane, Australia.
Firstly
, I would like to show my expression of interest in the opportunity to co-operate with the head office's Department of Construction Sciences in Los Angeles, United States. Initially
, my intention was to stay for a period of six months. It is a great opportunity for my career to develop my skills and have the opportunity to work beside such
talented people. So it would be a rich experience for my professional career and personal growth as well.
Secondly
, I will be able to keep managing the Brisbane Department from LA, hence
, since COVID-19, I have been running everything from my home office, so there will not be any inconvenience in doing it in the same way. Furthermore
, I may ask, if you could organize the translation for this
6 month
period with head office.
I would very much appreciate your consideration and help, I hope to hear back from you.
Yours Sincerely,
GonzaloAdd a hyphen
