This sentence while conveying the meaning is not grammatically right. Just came upon it from an email i recieved.

"I just want to convey that I am open to wherever company XYZ can best utilize my skills, while at the same time ensuring that I have a high learning curve, enriching experience and monetarily satisfied"

No OA for this. Hope the gurus in this forum will chew it up and throw the right sentence.

One thing i see is Redundency

While and at the same time both means the same thing. So, "at the same time" can be easily removed.


P.S: I am not a guru :!:
