RE:APPLICATION FOR FINANCE GRADUATE TRAINEE POSITION

I am currently working as an accountants clerk in a family enterprise where I perform clerical accounting duties within a defined scope under moderate supervision. The core reason I am interested in an opportunity with your company is because of the high reputation of your graduate training programme, and your commitment to giving new recruits an opportunity to grow and develop their skills.

Signed,
