Sometimes, companies choose people based on their personality rather than skill set. Why do you think that is the case? What do you think is more important – personality or skills?

Dear Sir/Madam, I hope you are doing well. Recently I found an advertisement for many vacant jobs in one of the reputed organizations. I would like to apply for the post of quality control chemist at a multinational company. Hands-on activity and practical exercises are the key skills for the job and the selection is the basis for that. As I said that the vacant post is for those who have a good command of science equipment and hands-on activities. As you know that I was always getting higher marks in practical subjects and using apparatus in a safe manner. consequently, if you reference my name for this job then it will be easy to pass an interview and will be selected for the vacant role. So, I am requesting you to please write a reference letter to the HR manager and indicate that I am a fast learner, trustworthy, can do chemical testing in an accurate way, and exhibiting great control of equipment. Thank you in advance/ I am waiting for your at the earliest. Yours Sincerely, XYZ
