Dear Hiring Manager,
I am reaching out to you for the opportunity of securing the Subtitler/Captioner position as I believe myself to be the ideal candidate for the role. I provide services that transmit the meaning as accurately as possible while respecting specifications and coping with technical obstacles. I am prepared to deliver excellent results to resolving these upcoming challenges with my strong background in detail-oriented and deadline-driven organizations backed by ten cumulative years of experience founded on superior communication and organizational capabilities. I am currently working as a subtitling freelancer creating broadcast-quality captions and wish to expand my services. I likewise have ample experience as an administrator working with multiple language documents that I had drafted, edited and reviewed. I have transcribed meeting details from audio and visual sources for the federal government, as well as created and delivered presentations that I had independently researched.
Additionally, I am highly involved with the local language exchange community, wherein I not only give personalized English lessons but also translate and proofread written documents and assignments. The community often hosts movie screenings in both languages that are then the basis for a myriad of exercises. My community is positively affected by the ready availability of high-quality subtitles that aid in our development and I would be ecstatic to contribute to the creation of such an impactful resource.
It is my professional goal to offer outstanding service in an exciting sector that reflects my ability to offer the highest standards in line with furthering my career ambitions. With my strong track record and personable character I am confident I would make a valuable addition to your team. The chance to offer more insight into my qualifications would be most welcome. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to speaking with you soon. Sincerely,
Joanna Diane Galon
