I graduated from Beijing University in 2001 with a degree in English. My first full-time job was a secretary for the Training Director of a consultancy company. Since 2002 I have been working as a bilingual secretary for a large international publishing company.
I am very interested in the position because I would like to use my English. I am enthusiastic about working for an engineering company and feel that I have the flexibility, motivation and communication skills you require.

However, I would now prefer a post where I can use my knowledge of Japanese and my interest in art might be useful.
I hope you will consider my application and look forward to hearing from you.
