Dear. To whom it may concerned,
My name is Jin-won Ko.
I would like to let you know some details about myself and get the chance to work for the position.
(Break Stereotype)
This is my slogan and I always see any kind of phenomenon without “Stereotype”
I am always open to all possibilities and think there is nothing impossible.
(International Business & Academic Mind Set)
I have work-experience in SCHOTT KOREA, glass manufacturer, for almost 4 years as a sales representative. SCHOTT is multi-international company which has various business units and I was responsible for one of the BU, Advanced Optics. As it has many Production and R&D sites in different countries, I learned how to communicate with the people living in different cultural-areas. In addition, as I took care of almost 20 companies including SAMSUNG, I learned how to manage the customer relationships and what is important to keep and develop business.
Also, working experience in Elsevier Korea and Cactus Communications, through many of the activities – get the clearer idea on the importance of right and correct information and trained how to search the right information through the right tool.
(Will to overcome new challenge)
I have worked in ELSEVIER KOREA, publisher, for 1 year as a product manager. Besides business & communication skills, it needed detailed product knowledge which was totally new for me. (IT Based like Web Interface) and as it is selling articles, I needed to read articles and track the academic trend. To overcome this new challenge, I made a lot of effort like researching information after working and volunteer for presentation in seminars with scholars. Through this effort, I took new chance to drive new project for new database and achieved co-development with major universities.
Just like this I have strong will to overcome new challenge and can overcome any tasks given to me.
(The world is as one)
I have experienced to stay Ohio, United States to take language course. I took intensive language course and also undergraduate courses. Besides learning English, I learned the culture through living an old American couple and also leaned love for humanity through activity of helping disabled children. Through this experience I strongly believe that I can communicate with open mind and understand their needs.
(Love Communication and English /Eagerness to deliver the right information)
I think that the job itself is not just for earning money but enjoying what I like and get a satisfaction from the all activities in workplace. Personally, I like to communicate with the people and share things together. So far, I’ve worked in sales department and my work performance was always great because I really enjoyed it. Also, I love to communicate with using English for any kind of subjects which is business related or academy related. In addition, I eager to expand the sales area based on my efforts under teamwork because it gives me a great satisfaction to pioneer new areas.
It would be appreciated if I have the chance to have an interview to express myself more.
Thanks for your consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Jinwon Ko
