About me
Dear Sir/Madam,
I was excited to hear of the Junior Copywriter position which almost perfectly matches my experience, skills and career ambitions.
Here are four key reasons to consider my application.
*Solid experience in copywriting and web editing
Over five years experience in my field: I helped launch AMG publishing's flagship website, using CMS to maintain and update (write, edit and copywriting) original content via CMS (Content Management Systems) on a daily basis. Proven and demonstrable copywriting feature articles and additional projects for Ryan Air, Easyjet, BMI magazines, MTV, Bauer Media, Dubai World Trade Centre, event guides, brochures and blogs.
*Unstoppable enthusiasm
With a background in online and print publishing I am able to work in cross-functional teams or alone using my own initiative. I am an ambitious, hard working, resilient, understanding and persistent creator of words to drive volume.
I bring solid research skills (honed from years as a successfully published Journalist) working to very strict deadlines to get the job done. From strategy creation through to project management, I give my full attention to every aspect of a project.
*I believe that 'Content is King'
Having worked for newspapers, magazines and websites in a diverse range backgrounds (Entertainment, lifestyle, business, trade and specialist titles) my educated knowledge and proficiency has led me to understand that 'Content is King' regardless of which publication and readership I am writing for, making me a more effective communicator.
I follow the BBC's ethos of providing content that it should inform, educate and entertain in order for it to be successful in attracting the consumer. (These can be amended dependent on the businesses' core needs and targets.)
*Keen to progress
As an established member of my industry, I'm looking for career-building opportunities in an environment where I can continue to learn and flourish.
Thank you for taking the time to review my key attributes and CV. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Ashwin Mehra
