WRITTEN TEST
Exercise 1 Reading comprehension (7 points)
Read this extract from a job application form.
Outline why you are applying for this job. Use this space to describe your relevant
qualification, skills and experience and indicate why they are suitable for this role.
I am interested in this job because I am currently looking for an opportunity to use the skills I
learnt in my college. I have recently completed a 16-week part-time accounting course (AAT
Level 2 Certificate). The course covered book-keeping, recording income and receipts and
basic costing. We used a wide range of computer packages, and I picked up the accounting
skills easily. I was able to work alone with very little extra help. I passed the course with
merit. I believe my success was due to my thorough work, my numeracy skills and my
attention to detail. During the course, I had experience of working to deadlines and working
under pressure. Although this was sometimes stressful, I always completed my work on time.
Unfortunately, the course did not include a work placement, so I have not practiced my skills
in a business setting, and I am now looking for an opportunity to do so. I am particularly
looking for a job in a small company such as yours, as I believe I will be able to interact with a
wider range of people, and as a result, learn more skills. I would like to progress within a
company and gain more responsibilities over the years.
Although I do not have work experience in finance, I have experience in working in an office
environment. Before starting the accounting course, I worked for 6 months in a recruitment
office as a receptionist. My duties involved meeting and greeting clients and visitors, taking
phone calls, audio and copy typing and checking stock. I also had to keep the petty cash and
mail records. Through this work, I developed my verbal and written communication skills. I
had to speak confidently to strangers and deliver clear messages. I enjoyed working in a team
environment. I believe the office appreciated my friendly manner and efficient work.
