To whom it may concern,
I am interested to apply for the position of workplace safety and health officer as referred to the advertisement in JobsDB website. With the emphasis of Apex on providing quality service and good rapport with her clients in projects in fields ranging from petrochemicals to hotels, I believe that this is the area where I can excel in and at the same time line up with my area of interest.
My previous internship experience with Total Petrochemicals Pte Ltd allowed me to establish effective communication skills between vendors as well as to ensure an overall success of two projects that were undertaken by me. The overall experience has helped in the decision for me to venture into the safety, health and environment field where my keen interest lies in. My meticulous nature will be an added advantage to ensure that even the most minor details of safety can be reinforced.
Several academic related and school related projects have shaped me into a team player where I have worked together with the rest to ensure the smooth completion of the various projects. Working under the Breakers’ event as one of the programmers has enhanced my capability in organization and planning, which I believe is useful for the scope of a safety officer.
My previous role in the Engineering Welfare sub-committee as a secretary has also allowed me to display my administrative abilities and put them into use when I had to keep track of the meeting minutes and arrange meetings with the committee members. The participation in other curriculum activities has required me to work on different entities simultaneously under different levels of stress.
Attached is a copy of my resume which covers more details on my qualifications.
I look forward to the further discussion on the job opening with you and will most welcome the opportunity for an interview with you. I will contact you within the next week to confirm that the email and resume has been received as well as to answer any further questions you may have.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Heng Li Shan

Hi Li Shan,
This is a good piece of application letter. It has most of the seven C's like clear and couteous. However, you forgot to insert the description of the job requirement and so I am not sure whether your writing is concise. :)
