Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my interest in the Translator position at the British Embassy, as

advertised. As a recent graduate with a strong passion for languages and cultural exchange,
I believe I am well-suited for this role. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Sesila,
and I have recently completed my Bachelor's degree in Translation Studies from University
Ayam Goreng. Throughout my academic journey, I have developed a deep understanding
of various languages, including English, which I have mastered to an advanced level.

I came across the job opening on the official website of the British Embassy. The
opportunity to work as a translator in such a prestigious institution greatly appeals to me. I
am particularly drawn to the embassy's commitment to fostering international relations and
promoting cross-cultural understanding. What sets me apart as a candidate is my strong
linguistic skills, attention to detail, and cultural sensitivity. During my studies, I have
gained extensive experience in translating various types of documents, including legal,
technical, and literary texts. I am proficient in using translation tools and software, which
enables me to deliver accurate and high-quality translations efficiently.

Moreover, my ability to adapt to different contexts and work under pressure has been
honed through internships and freelance translation projects. These experiences have not
only enhanced my language skills but also sharpened my problem-solving and time
management abilities. I firmly believe that my academic background, language
proficiency, and passion for translation make me an ideal fit for the Translator position at
the British Embassy. I am confident that my dedication, professionalism, and strong work
ethic will contribute to the embassy's mission of effective communication and cultural
exchange.

Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to further
discuss how my skills and qualifications align with the requirements of the position. I have
attached my resume for your review. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to the
British Embassy's translation team.

Yours sincerely,

[Sesilia]
