Surakarta, October 6th, 2020 
Dear Sir or Madam, 

I am a fresh graduate from University of XYZ. I am writing this to apply for translator position in your company whose ads I recently found on a job portal. I would appreciate your considering my placement in this role. 

As you can see from my CV, I was learning about language and translation in my college years. I was also practicing time management so that I can finish the tasks to meet deadlines and complete the courses. Furthermore, my internship periods in translating have taught me how to work properly and gradually achieve better results. 

I am a conscientious person and a hard worker. I am keen to work in a company like yours where I can apply my translating skills. I also believe that I can be a contributor to your company's growth. 

I hope you find this information useful and please take a moment to review my enclosed CV. 

Sincerely, 
Nathalie Putri
