HELP ME GET THIS JOB!!
The Singapore censorship board need someone to basically play games prior to release and then write reports on their findings. This seems to require liaising with the developers and areas of the community. Like I'm not the ideal person for this!!
They've basically told me they can't offer me a position, so I'm kind of writing an appeal letter. This is where you guys come in. I've tried writing this out but I feel it needs more work, and as well as that I feel like I'm gushing a bit too much.

Hello there,
I really appreciate the reply to my application, however I find it truly disheartening that I'm not being granted the chance to come and discuss the position in a more formal interview. I'm know I am the perfect candidate for this position, as well as this I have never been as enthusiastic about a job opening. (SOUNDS OKAY TO ME)
It was my pure lust for the video game industry that led me towards my career in interactive graphics design. Despite never working in the video game industry on a full-time basis I do have brief experience supplying textural artwork and assets as a remote intern. More recently I have extensive experience in management, as well as the management of projects spanning across the various companies I've worked. I have liaised with clients at an international level during my post as Project Manager at a digital marketing agency here in Singapore. I am a very well spoken individual, and pride myself in my person-to-person presentation and rapport building. (THIS MIGHT NOT BE TOO BAD)
I also believe my experience working within the education sector would prove invaluable when embracing the community aspects briefly mentioned in the job description. I am more than capable when communicating with all ages and races. On a cultural level I am well aware of Asian values and standards. (NEEDS CONTENT BECAUSE I'M MARRIED TO A CHINESE WOMAN, I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN ABOUT ASIAN VALUES DESPITE THAT, AND WOULD ALSO CLASS MYSELF AS A 'CHINESE FAMILY' MAN DUE TO BEING A PART OF ONE FOR FIVE YEARS)
Let's not forget to mention what this job role revolves around - video games. I would describe myself as a highly skilled gamer capable of scrutinising all forms of digital content at a record pace. With almost thirty years experience playing video games across practically 99% of all hardware platforms in existence I'm truly confident that I can digest content thoroughly and in record time. Unlike most professionals I'm not afraid to disclose that gaming is my number-one hobby. If I were to be chosen for this position I'd practically be working overtime every single breathing minute of my existence, and no job or task would be too large. (NEEDS HELP BECAUSE MAYBE I SOUND TOO EAGER)
I really hope this email can grant me the chance at coming to meet with you to discuss the position in more detail. I am certain you won't find anyone else who is anywhere near as enthusiastic as I am concerning this role.
Yours sincerely,
David.
