Tip Motivation letter Electronic alternation
I would like to apply next year for a professional degree in electronics in a sandwich course.
For my file I am asked to write a letter of motivation to a possible employer.
That’s why I would need some advice on this one, and also I don’t think I see any spelling mistakes but I may have forgotten some.
Ma’am, sir,
Currently in BTS Electronics, I would like to continue my studies by a Professional Licence XXX proposed at the University XXX.
I am therefore looking for an employer likely to accept me in the form of a work-study contract.
The field of electronics being my main interest, following this training would be for me a new opportunity to acquire and develop new knowledge.
This licence would allow me to achieve the finality of my school project and then get involved in working life.
I am an open-minded person with a sense of responsibility and organization, and I know how to work independently as well as in a group. As a result, I believe I can meet the requirements and needs of a company such as yours.
I am highly motivated, and I am above all looking to develop my skills in the field and to put my acquired knowledge in relation to the business world so that I can subsequently meet the needs of my future profession.
I hope that my application will be of interest to you, and I am at your disposal for any further information you may require.
Yours sincerely

you n’t make any differentiating statements about the company you’re applying to. It’s a little bit of an all-purpose letter, not personalised to the addressee

Hi to you jpcheck and thanks for your reaction!
Yes indeed it is a letter that is not addressed to any particular company, that’s the point!
Because today I have to send a letter of motivation to my establishment which will welcome me to a potential employer, so I have no contact with a particular company!

Is the addressee your institution or employer for the cover letter?
If it’s the company that will employ you, my argument remains valid

Yes, the recipient is indeed an employer!
I think the school will send this letter to all the school’s corporate partners!
So I can’t target any one company in particular.

I doubt the school will find you an employer directly.
HIS goal here is to see if you already have the motivation to find a company.
The school will be able to give you a list of possible contacts, but it will not find you a company, but you
Anyway, that’s how my establishment
works.

Personally for my apprenticeship it was my university that forwarded my CV to its partner companies so that I could be called for an interview afterwards. At the same time, however, steps had to be taken if the partner companies were not interested.

But if not, is the cover letter correct?
