Dear Mr (...Employer's Surname...),
Application for the Post of Assistant Quantity Surveyor
With reference to your advertisement on (xxxxxxxxxxxxx) , I am writing to apply for the post of Assistant Quantity Surveyor
I am the graduated student studying Surveying (QS) in the City University of Hong Kong. In my junior secondary school life, I participated in several extra-curricular activities including basketball team and the badminton team. In the summer holiday after the HKCEE, I took part in the school campaign to go to the primary school as a student helper to support the primary student about their homework. In the later summer holiday, I undertook training in Volunteer Orientation Programme and became a volunteer at Castle Peak Hospital, which required taking care of patient, general office works and working as a cash checker. After finishing the HKALE, I work in a bookshop as a salesman. Details please see the enclosed resume.
I am confident that I will be able to work independently under busy environment. In my university courses, I have already learned about different types of job relating to the quantity surveying field including tendering, interim payment and claims. I hope all these make me match your criteria.
I look forward to your response. Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
(name)
