Я Вам пишу... Деловые и личные письма по-английски и по-русски - [18]

We have looked into this matter and found some confusion in the numbering of two different orders which were collected by our forwarding agent for shipment to the USA.

We have reviewed our coding system and can assure you that similar mistakes will not happen again.

We have already shipped replacement for the contents of case number 5 and instructed our representative in the USA to collect the wrong-delivered goods as soon as possible.

Finally, we would like to apologize for the inconvenience you were caused and to thank you for your patience in this matter.

We look forward to hearing of the safe arrival of the replacement and to doing further business with you.

Sincerely yours,

3. Сопроводительное письмо к резюме

Получить работу можно двумя способами: либо занять объявленную вакансию, либо добиться, чтобы такая вакансия была объявлена по результатам Вашего письма. Поэтому сопроводительные письма в каждом конкретном случае пишутся по-разному. Цель сопроводительного письма и резюме – получить интервью, т.е. личную встречу с работодателем.

Золотое правило:

Без интервью, т.е. личной встречи с работодателем, Ваши шансы на получение работы равны нулю. Удачные сопроводительное письмо и резюме призваны сделать эту встречу реальной.

Сопроводительное письмо и резюме составляют единый пакет документов, которые вы должны подготовить для подачи в отдел кадров компании. Подготовка и написание сопроводительных писем – большой труд и большое искусство, которое можно сравнить со снайперской стрельбой. Чтобы попасть в «яблочко», нужно сделать сотни учебных выстрелов. При этом существует ряд Золотых правил, которым полезно следовать.

Золотое правило:

1. Письмо и резюме должны быть напечатаны на бумаге одного сорта.

2. Информация, содержащаяся в обоих документах, не должна повторяться.
