Sample cover letter for Full Time position at European Commission

POSITION:

Administrator

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to apply for this post. My name is (...). I am a political scientist and passed the AD competition.

For seven years I have worked for DG DEVCO of the European Commission where I was responsible for the humanitarian activities on non-discrimination in developing countries. Before joining the Commission I was a public affairs consultant and an assistant of a Member of Parliament. 

One of my achievements in the Commission was writing the Staff Document "Paving the way for an EU development and Cooperation Results Framework". I was in charge of a small team of the external service.

I have excellent oral and written communication skills and would be able to successfully contribute to the Commission's reputation. An important part of my skills are my language skills. I speak fluently Danish, English and some elementary knowledge of French.

For further details, you can find my CV attached. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
