Application for training as an industrial clerk – is this application letter good enough?

Dear Sir/Madam,

Numbers, organization, and communication – it's precisely this diversity that makes the career of industrial clerk so appealing to me. I was very interested to learn about the opportunity to complete this training with you. Your innovative spirit and your resource-saving and environmentally conscious approach in particular convinced me that I would be able to contribute and further develop my commercial talent and organizational skills here.

During my work-and-travel stay in Athens, Greece, I independently organized my trip and responded flexibly to new challenges. This not only allowed me to demonstrate my independence and strong communication skills, but also strengthen my intercultural competence. I see these skills as an ideal foundation for successfully tackling the commercial, organizational, and communication tasks of an industrial clerk.

My business administration studies at the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences also gave me initial insights into accounting and business processes. However, I realized that I lacked practical relevance in my studies. Therefore, I would now like to expand my theoretical knowledge through practical training at your company. I am particularly looking forward to processing sales transactions and supporting sales negotiations.

I am convinced that with my structured and team-oriented approach to work and my willingness to learn, I can make a valuable contribution to your company.

I look forward to convincing you of my motivation and abilities in a personal conversation.

Best regards

What I like about the company and what tasks I'm looking forward to will, of course, be individually tailored to the job description. Do you have any suggestions for improvement?

This is what I notice:

  • Length of application! Is something too long! How do you want to put all this on a DINA4 page. You can get tight or you reduce the font size. But the staffer will be happy;-)
  • Seems as if there was much written off from a template or ChatGPT used. This sounds mostly like the usual templates or I’m the most amazing bullet. A trained personnel will immediately notice this!
  • I wouldn’t do great thematization of your aborted BWL study! On the one hand, this often doesn’t make a good impression or can lead to rushing conclusions from the reader and you should also have a really good answer if there are questions to do with the interview, because they will!

My recommendation: shorten and write yourself! Be authentic!

Good luck!

Sure. In the letter of application I would not mention this if at best only a very short time, as this also results from the CV. If you have any questions about this and you should get into the narrower selection, you can ask that during the interview. But as I said, you should definitely have a good answer. However, not too much thematize.
