Hello there
I am contacting you concerning the submissions of the information for the positions on offer. I have already submitted my application; although I was wondering if you could send an email to notify us that you had received them…?
For me, it would have been four emails, given that the information that was required would not be enough to set me apart from the healthy competition. Please do not be under the impression that it is spam, it is more of persistence to perpetuate my writing abilities. The first two emails contain my experience with writing along with my resume and testimonials and the last two contain articles I dedicated to motorsport and specifically for the positions on offer, so I believe you shall find it beneficial if you were to peruse through them.
I found that we were not given a timeframe for when the position would hypothetically be filled which makes the entire application process a little more unnerving as we, the applicants lack clarity, amidst this situation. Would you be so kind to inform us of a timeframe that these positions would be filled?
I thank you for the opportunity and hope to hear from you soon…
With gratitude
Morgan
