Dear Mr. Hampton:

I hope you are well. I am writing to be considered for an overseas assignment with Talbot Thingamajig, inc. Specifically, I am requesting to be assigned to help open a branch of the company in France. I chose to study France in my training course because it is one of the top ten trading partners with the United States. Also, in 2008 France was ranked as the fifth most powerful economy.

Over the course of the next 7 ½ weeks, I expect to learn about France’s culture, food, business etiquette and some important phrases in French. Having this knowledge will greatly impact my abilities to communicate and fit in if I am ever in the situation where I am visiting or living in France. Also, knowing business etiquette would be helpful if I am in France on a business matter and need to know how to act properly.

Lastly, I think I would be a great addition to this team because I am a very hard worker. In school, I have received perfect homework four times and been on the honor roll twice. Also, I work well with others. I play on a soccer team, which you have to work together if you want to score. In school, I always cooperate with my group when we are doing a project and we always do well on it. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Jamie Duff
