LETTER OF APPLICATION

Apply to the manager, Mrs Benson, saying why you think you are suitable for a job in our international bookshop.

Dear Mrs Benson,

I’m writing to apply for the post which I saw advertised in Tuesday’s edition of Sussex Express.

I’m 24 years old and currently finishing my studies in Brighton. I will have a BA in Language and Literature degree by the University of Brighton next June.

I have been working for three months in Alicia’s bookshop and I also had a part-time job in Marlon’s Store for a year in 2013. In the last store not only have I been working as a shop assistant, but also as a storyteller.

I believe I am a good candidate for this job in your international bookshop because I consider myself to be cheerful, dynamic, knowledgeable and keen on reading.

Thank you for your consideration.
