Dear …
RE: Translator position
I am a professional Translator currently looking for work in the area. In a conversation I had with __(name)__ earlier in the week, there was an incdication that you might be in need of my service. I am sending my resume for your review along with several samples of my work.
Currently, I fluently speak and write in __(#)__different languages. I majored in Linguistics in University with a minor in Anthropology. I have the ability to provide accurate written and verbal translations in the following languages:
__(name of language #1)__
__(name of language #2)__
__(name of language #3)__
Having my minor in Anthropology has given me a unique understanding of cultural or sociological significance in any of the documents I am working with. It gives me a better understanding of the context in which the document was written.
I believe that my skills may qualify me for your current translation needs and I look forward to your feedback. Please feel free to contact me at __(phone#)__ anytime.
Sincerely,
__(your name )__
