🔥GRAMMAR TIME🔥

❗️Remember that the verb SUGGEST is never followed by the infinitive. These are the correct structures:

I suggest getting some financial advice (NOT I suggest TO get…)
I suggest
that we (should) get some financial advice.

❗️Remember that the word ADVICE doesn’t have a plural form.

WRONG: I got 3 advices.
RIGHT: I got 3 pieces of advice.

and the last thing. Pay attention that the noun ADVICE and the verb TO ADVISE are spelled differently.

😎Emailing Tips: Greetings😎

To keep greetings simple, here are examples that you can use in 90% of business situations:

🔹Hi First Name, (informal)
Hi James,
Hi Hannah,

🔹Hello Mr. / Ms. Last Name, (formal)
Hello Ms. Smith,
Hello Mr. Bond,

🔹Hello Team Name, (to groups)

🔹Hello Sales Team,

🔹Hello Marketing Team,

🔹"Hi all," "Hi team" or "Hi everyone" (if it’s a group of people you know really well)

🔹Dear Sarah, Roxy and Chad (use their first names if it’s a small group of people (five or less)

🔹"Dear Coworkers," "Dear Colleagues" or "Dear Hiring Committee" (if it’s a more formal email)

❗️Notice that we always start with a capital letter, and there is a comma (,) NOT an exclamation mark (!) after each greeting.

Why should we hire you? Example how to answer the question

✏️Based on what you’ve said and from the research I’ve done, your company is looking for a sales manager who is both strong in interpersonal skills and in tech skills. I believe my experience aligns and makes me a great fit. I'm an effective communicator who is skilled in giving presale presentations to the customers both online and offline, and communicating via email. I'm also proficient in a number of relevant software programs, including content management systems and spreadsheet suites which are required to sell the products you develop. I’d love to bring my diverse skill set to your company.
