Great work Gemma! My corrections are in red and my suggestions to sound more natural are in blue/grey.


Dear Sirs - If you are sure that the recipients of your letter will be men, you can use this. If you're not sure if the recipient will be a man or a woman, it's better to write "Dear Sir or Madam".


After/Since my degree - After my degree indicates a completed action, e.g. "After my degree I completed a Masters course". Since my degree indicates an ongoing action, e.g. "Since my degree I have been studying (and still continue to study...)


I am available to arrange/attend an interview - The person who organises the interview is the one who will arrange the interview. As you would be a candidate, you would attend rather than arrange the interview.


At your convenience - I suggested adding this to make your final sentence a little more polite. Otherwise it sounds a little abrupt. It might sound even better to say "I would welcome the opportunity to attend an interview at your convenience".
