Re: TV Host
Dear Mr. Fodil,
I have seen your advertisement for the post of a tv host in “El-Chorouk” newspaper and would like
to apply for the job
My name is Adam Slimani and I am 30 years old. I have graduated from the faculty of journalism
at ‘’Algiers 3 university’’ in 2012. In addition to my diploma of Journalism, I studied French for 3 years at “the
University of Algiers 2” and graduated in 2015, so I think that my level is fairly good for the job. At the same
time, I was taking training courses of communication in order to improve my social skills in dealing
with people.
My working experience as a News editor for “El Bilad” improved my editing and writing skills. I
am also very passionate of learning languages, for the moment I am taking courses of Spanish. I would like
to inform you as well that I am a well-organized person who prefers to do his tasks at time.
I had occupied the post of a reporter in “EL Nahar TV” for 18 months from March 2017 to August
2018. At the present time, I am working in a private company where I deal with administrative documents,
business like papers, researches and other services.
I attached two letters of reference which approve my good conduct, my resume and my 2
diplomas.
Regarding the experiences I have in articles writing and news reporting. I believe I would have a
great chance to be accepted as a TV host. Looking forward for your positive reply soon.
, Yours Sicerely,
Adam Slimani
