The question..

Why would you like to work for us.

The response..

"Cars are my passions and their something I live for! Audi being one of my favourite brands I would consider it an honour to work for them. With my back history in cars and working on shop floor as a seller these skills team well together to make an effective sales man for the team and the brand. "

Is the application from someone whose first language is English? I don't mean that humorously/nastily, but it comes across as if it was written by someone relatively new to English rather than an illiterate English person.

I thought you were a manager who had received the drivel in the OP.

You actually wrote it and were thinking of submitting it yikes

The question was "Why do you want to work for us", and apart from the "Honour" bit, you haven't told them. You've just told them what makes you suitable to apply.

Write a list of the reason why you want to sell Audis for a living (not why you could), and why you want to do it at that dealership. Then come back here.

I've tried, and I can't think of a single reason, so I can't help there...

If you don't change anything else at least fix these issues.

Is the job for Audi or a dealership? If the latter then why mention it's an honour to work for Audi?

Also, it is possible the recipient may be reading this thread smile
