Dear Father Edward,
I have the honor to apply for the post of lecturer in economics advertised in the New York Times of 21st June, 2010. It will be my pleasure to work with an elite institute.

During my research I deeply studied the share market economy and its dependency on the foreign trade. I am also well aware about the foreign trade laws and legal process. I would like to assure you that all my research will be very helpful for the student and I will prove to be a good lecturer.
Along with all the professional degree in economics, my personal skill of good communication, presentation and top level satisfaction make me a right prospect for this post. Therefore, I am looking for a personal interview so as to discuss more about my education and skills. Please phone me at 420-61632465.
