Dear Sir/Madam, (<--- Eeek! Always adress both sexes if you do not have a
name! Better still go find out who the Human Resources person is that will
get this letter!)
In response to the position advertised on your website, Software Development
Engineer for Cellular Networks (Nr ref.), I would like to present my
qualifications and application (or if you have not already received one:
requestion an application form. )
I am a graduate of the Electronics Department (*companies* have "divisions")
of Wroclaw's Technical University (when?: in 19xx) where I specialised in
telecommunications and signal processing. During my studies, I became
familiar with the latest telecommunications technologies and was
familiarised with signal processing theory and the implementational methods
of (its associated???) algorithms. In this context, I learned how to develop
and coordinate the development of software from the initial stages of
conceptual design right through to a finished product complete with user
interface.
As part of my studies I have also studied many OSs including Linux, Unix and
the realtime system QNX for which I can also script in C. My dissertation
was "Orthogonal Compression of Second-Order Random Signals" where I
single-handedly calculated the algorithms for the optimal filtration of
non-stationary signals and implemented them in Matlab. Along side my
studies, I successfully achieved certification (which???) as a SCO UNIX
systems Administration.
I am currently employed as a technologist (is the a real English word???) in
the Wroclaw Division of the (Polish?) Telecommunications Research Institute.
I am a member of the Microwave Tubes Designers' Team and am responsible for
the construction and productions processes of the tubes (in the UK we say
'valve' for "tube" as far as I know... at least in sound recording
technology circles.)
I am confident that my qualifications and responsibile, competent and
conscientiousness (snip... don't roast it! They'll think you should add
conceited if you go on too long!) work ethic will prove to be an asset to
your company. CV enclosed.
Yours faithfully, (unless you have a name after Dear, = sincerely, )
Rafal

These kinds of letters are usually quite controversial in formulation. I
have simply tried to almagamate how I would write such a letter with the
essence of your old one. Hope it helps, at any rate best of luck! The stuff
in ( ) is of course not part of the letter! Best run it through a spell
checker (UK English ) too!
:-)
