I am a (Certificate name, if you have, like; National Geographic Certified) Journalist, who just moved to (Place name or show your cause) about a month ago. After completing my journalism from the (University name), I dedicated myself to the field as a career and as a hobby. Working for (Institute name, if you have experience) as their lead journalist (Job position) was like a dream came true, but dream soon come to an end and ended when my visa expired and I couldn’t get to renew it.

I have been following your news channel for quite some time now and I envy the way you deliver, the way you raise your voice and the way you hypnotize the viewers. It’s absolutely brilliant.

I hope you will find my employment application satisfying and good enough to consider.
I am attaching my CV along with this letter.
Waiting for your response
