Dear Mr. Jones,
I am a regular reader of your esteemed daily and it has been my dream to work with your newspaper. I would like you to kindly consider my application for the post of senior correspondent of the eastern region.
As you can see my resume, I have passed my journalism masters with distinction and was the topper in my class. I have worked with New Day for four years and I have covered political and human interest stories. I am sending a link of all the stories which I have done till now along with my resume.
I would be glad if you could take out time and give me a chance to appear for an interview with you so that I get to show you my work.
I shall look forward to hearing from you.
With regards and best wishes,
Yours sincerely,
Allison Manealy
