I wish to submit my application for the post of a nurse in your company following a vacancy announcement on the company website. I was very excited to find out that the job description perfectly fits my education and expertise, and I have confidence that if given the opportunity I can take on the challenge
I have a bachelor’s degree in nursing and three years of robust training and work experience. During my four years in the University, I gained both the theoretical knowledge in class and extensive practical skills in the industrial training.
