Dear Sir,
My name is Amanda Finch and I am in the my final year of studying Engineering at Charles Darwin University. I have seen an advertisement published in the newspaper on last Friday about the vacancy available in your City Museum shop. This is the reason, I am writing to you now as I am looking for a part time job during the summer holidays.
I am extremly good at adding up maths (instead of "maths," you can also say "business transactions") and I speak English quite well. Moreover, last year I worked in a restaurant serving tourists from all over the world, due because of that I obtained communication skills. I am very keen on history and I have been more than once in your museum more than once as well. I know the value of a museum and its advantages to the public. Therefore, I could help to increase the number of customers attend visiting every day.
The My reason for applying for this position is to utilize my holidays as meaningful. I would be grateful to you, if you consider me for this position. I look forward to hearing soon from you.
Yours faithfully,
Amanda Finch
