About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is in response to the role of Junior Copywriter advertised on the website, creativepool.co.uk. I believe that I have the skills and expertise you are looking for to make a perfect candidate for this role.

To tell you a little bit about myself, I am a young, creative and versatile copywriter with a superb command over the English language. I recently graduated with a Masters Degree in Media and Creative Enterprise from the University of Gloucestershire, with Merit, and I am fully qualified for full time employment in the UK. Prior to this, I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism from the University of Mumbai, with Distinction.

I have over two and a half years of direct Copywriting experience that is divided between creative agencies, design agencies, and content and publishing companies. In my capacity as a Copywriter, I have crafted copy across verticals like print, digital, radio, and viral, for B2B and B2C clients. I have extensive experience in below the line communication such as posters, brochures, leaflets, standees and other forms of persuasive DM collaterals. To put it simply, I'm a master of call-to-action communication and coercive content really excites me. I have experience crafting copy for several industries that include Retail, Automobile, IT Education, Hospitality, Food and Beverages, amongst many others.

I am also quite adept with Digital Marketing and Social Media, having conducted an independent academic study into social network marketing methods versus traditional forms of advertising, as part of my thesis and dissertation during my Masters. My most recent employed position was as a Digital Executive for a Recruitment company, overseeing Social Media content. I was directly responsible for an email newsletter campaign, from conceptualizing to execution and networking stages, that would go on to increase the company's network strength and business, within just six months of its inception.

Having worked directly with Art Directors, I also have a deep passion for Design, and am a self learner in several creative software such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Dreamweaver. I have basic level HTML skills and have a keen grasp of SEO-friendly content creation as well.

I currently live in Oxford, but I am quite open to commuting to London for this role. To give you a better idea of my experience, I have attached a copy of my CV and some of my print work with this application. If you find it satisfactory, I would be delighted to meet with you and take this forward. I am available via email at and via mobile phone at . Do feel free to contact me at any point, to your convenience.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Kind regards,

Darius Mistry
