I am interested in this job because I am currently looking for an opportunity to use the
skills I learnt in my college. I have recently completed a 16-week part-time accounting
course (AAT Level 2 Certificate). The course covered book-keeping, recording income
and receipts and basic costing. We used a wide range of computer packages, and I
picked up the accounting skills easily. I was able to work alone with very little extra help. I
passed the course with merit. I believe my success was due to my thorough work, my
numeracy skills and my attention to detail. During the course, I had experience of working
to deadlines and working under pressure. Although this was sometimes stressful, I
always completed my work on time.
Unfortunately, the course did not include a work placement, so I have not practised my
skills in a business setting, and I am now looking for an opportunity to do so. I am
particularly looking for a job in a small company such as yours, as I believe I will be able
to interact with a wider range of people, and as a result, learn more skills. I would like to
progress within a company and gain more responsibilities over the years.
