The job description says: "Position directly under the President of the company. Involved in new business as an office manager." I applied for the position because I thought it would lead to my career development, allowing me to make use of my previous experience while aiming for further career progression.

1. Use "lead" instead of "link" because "lead" means to result in or cause something to happen, which fits the context of career development. "Link" implies a connection, but "lead" more accurately describes the progression toward career advancement.
2. Here is another way you can say this: ''striving''
In what ways do you think the position’s responsibilities will help you advance your career? Are there specific skills or experiences from your previous roles that you’re eager to apply or build upon in this new opportunity?

I aim to be a generalist. I have read your job description and I think that the position of start-up project office manager for a new business has a wide range of tasks and is linked to the career development I aim for.

自然な表現

I aim to be a generalist. I have read your job description and    think that the position of start-up project office manager for a new business has a wide range of tasks and is aligned with the career development I aim for.

1. Remove "I" before "think" because it is redundant. The subject "I" is already understood from the previous clause. Keeping it concise improves the sentence flow.
2. Use "is aligned with" instead of "is linked to" because "aligned with" better conveys that the position matches or supports your career goals. "Linked to" can imply a connection without the clear sense of purpose or direction that "aligned with" provides.
The diverse tasks in this role will definitely help you build a broad skill set. Could you tell me more about how you’ve approached similar tasks in the past and how you plan to apply that experience here?

I was an executive assistant and provided support to the executive. My duties were varied and included scheduling, preparing documents to short deadlines, preparing for meetings and providing hospitality to international guests. I am confident that I can be a generalist and be of service to your company as your office manager.

I was an executive assistant and provided support to the executive. My duties were varied and included scheduling, preparing documents on short deadlines, preparing for meetings, and providing hospitality to international guests. I am confident that I can be a generalist and be of service to your company as your office manager.

1. Use "on" instead of "to" because "on short deadlines" is the correct preposition to indicate the time frame within which tasks are completed. "On" shows the specific period or condition under which the documents are prepared.
2. Add a comma before ''and'' when listing something.
