Writing letters...

[JoeyB]

I agree just put a comma after company and drop the If not. You also don't need 'what' as in what other similar ........

I still don't think you need to mention the football team involvement that should be in your CV. Why have you singled that out, it's not as if you're applying to be the Manager of LCFC?

Apart from that I prefer the 2nd one because it say's right up front what you are after.

WOuld probably get it

there letting anyone take charge

thanks for the advice DavieG

How many companies has Davie spoken to? He seems to know a lot

Would it not be easier to say:

what companies hasn't Davie Spoken to

I've not spoken to many of them but I think I've written to most of them unfortunately you rarely get the courtesy of an acknowledgement let alone a proper reply, even when I've included a stamped addressed envelope, at their request they still don't bother.

On reflection I should ignore all my advice as it doesn't seem to be doing me any good

Like fook she will.

She threw mine in the bin months ago.

And the position was much less formal than even a 'trainee'.
