Message 19.B: Writing Application Follow-Up Messages

[LO-1] I am writing to inform you that it has been over a month since I posted my résumé on your job portal.

I understand that you must be in the process of reviewing résumés and the process takes time, but I was concerned as I had not heard from your company. I understand that the closing date for receiving applications is still a week from now.

I have tried to call your office and speak to someone from your recruiting team, but your operator could not connect me to the person responsible for this position.

Having failed to hear from your organization, I was naturally concerned as I believe my profile closely fits the position of Senior Administration Manager for your piston assembly plant.

I have a great deal of experience from my ten years as a supervisor on crank and piston assembly at Marshall & Sons, during which I worked with the best technology in the business. With my considerable supervisory experience, I will be able to competently lead your team in maintaining delivery schedules.

Would you please let me know when I might expect to hear from you? I would love to work for your company as I believe it is the best in piston assembly and, more importantly, an equal-opportunity employer.
