We would like to fill in this vacancy as soon as possible.
Please post this vacancy announcement in your group and bring it under =
the attention of potential candidates.
Also, please spread it to anyone who may be interested or could spread =
the vacancy announcement further.
Thank you very much for your help
Sincerely Yours
