    Since 07/05/2011 is my training contract ended and I am now looking for new tasks. At the time of my training I had the opportunity to confront me with the different fields of a merchant and me with diligence and zeal, and acquiring these capabilities. My duties included, inter alia, receive goods, the inventory management system, to act as branch representative, contact with traders, sales and consulting. I'm also for several years as a digital DJ and passionate about electronic music from house to techno and dubstep to drum and bass.

    I would like to interview you in person to convince of my strengths. About an invitation from you, I am therefore very special.

    Sincerely,...."

    i changed / re worded a lot of it. maybe someone can do a second pass on it because there were a couple of issues i found. look for stuff in brackets.

    Dear Beatport team,

    I have read on your site that you are offering a position as a merchandiser of free content. I am interested in filling this position because [it fulfills my expectations].

    My training contract with my former employer ended on July 5 2011 (07/05/2011) and I am looking for new tasks. During my apprenticeship I had the opportunity to confront many salespeople with diligence and zeal, furthering my skills and capabilities. My duties included, inter alia, to receive goods, editing the inventory management system, to act as a branch representative, contact traders, sales and consulting. I have also been a digital DJ for several years and i am passionate about electronic music, ranging from house, techno and dubstep to drum and bass.

    I would like to meet you in person to convince you of my strengths. I would feel very special if you also agree and would send me an invitation.

    I would love to be able to take [?] employment as soon as possible.
    Sincerely,....

    "...I am interested in this position, as I think it will meet my expectations." Would be my choice of words.
