Dear Sir,
I am writing this letter in response to a job advert which I read in the newspaper last week.
Last Monday, when I was reading the newspaper, I saw an advertisement regarding 10 temporary vacant jobs at the city post office. I think I can apply for the clerical posts, which are vacant.
I am a commerce graduate, and I completed a certificate course in Modern Financial Accounting. I worked as a trainee clerk in ‘Alpha Serene’, a multi-level marketing company for 2 years. I am planning to take a post-graduation in either Finance or Accounting, and a job related to this during my holidays would expand my career perspectives.
As I desire to work somewhere near my home, I think this temporary job in the city post office is a real boon for me, if I am selected. As per the advert, the ideal age limit for the jobs is between 22 and 25, and I am just 22. I can render my service as a young and energetic employee and I think the experience I gain from an institution like this is really worthy.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Peterson.
