I am writing to express my interest in a position of content writer.
Currently, I am working as freelance translator/copywriter of English, Russian and Ukrainian languages. At my last work, apart from translation and copywrite, I was leading a PR-project for the IBC exhibition at Amsterdam.
In June I have completed postgraduate course in Journalism-New Media at Sheridan College, Canada. Within this program I have developed my skills in telling different kind of stories through the newly emerged web and social media tools, thus, my creativity is now not limited to the written word. I have also gained a great experience in filming and editing videos for the projects I have created during the course, which I think are the core skills for a journalist in our world of fast news.
My previous work experience as translator and interpreter trained me to work under a high pressure and tight deadlines. This work also gave me a wide international experience and taught me how to interact with people from different cultures. While working as Personal Assistant of the Company Director I developed strong research skills as it was required to locate needed information fast and efficiently. I strongly believe my academic study combined with my previous work experience provides with the necessary skills and knowledge to be an effective member of your team.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely Yours,
Mariya Stepanova
