IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1

You found a job opportunity in a foreign country. Write a letter to your friend who knows about the country. In your letter mention the following:

– What is the nature of your future job?

– Why did you apply for that job?

– Ask for details and his/her advice about the country.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear J,

Hope this letter finds you in radiant health and the best of spirits. I applied for a job in Barklay’s Bank in Leeds and have received their job offer. I heard that you have also worked in the same bank in Leeds a couple of years ago.

My job is in their insurance section. It mainly involves meeting people and convincing them of our insurance policies. It also has a lot of fieldwork. I have done an MBA in finance and my resume was very impressive. That is why, perhaps, I got the job. The pay package is also very good.

I applied for this job because I have good communication skills and I love meeting people. The fieldwork involved in this job would help me in developing my network. Ultimately, I would love to open my own company and this experience would help me a lot.

Do tell me something about the country and the people there. What sort of weather I shall have to face and what sort of accommodation I should look for. It would really be helpful to know about the culture and traditions of the people there. It would help me get adjusted there sooner and mingle with the locals. It would also be good for my job.

Waiting eagerly to hear from you. Do convey my regards to your parents.

Yours lovingly,
