Dear Ms. Smith,
I’m writing to inquire whether you have any positions open at your store. I have strong communication skills, can follow directions quickly and I’m very good at responding to urgent needs. During our school’s book fair, I helped promote sales with customers and quickly noticed when supplies were running out. I was flexible during busy times and changed roles when directed by the supervising teacher.

I have seen first-hand the difference our school’s breakfast program makes because of the community grants from Zehrs and I am interested in working for a company that cares about the community it serves. Giving back to the community is very important to me, as you will notice with my co-op and volunteer experience with the Humane Society and the YMCA. In both roles, I was responsible for maintaining supplies and using my strong customer service skills.

My resume is enclosed with this letter so you can review my experience and achievements. I would appreciate an opportunity to talk with you to see how my skills could benefit your company. 

I know my ability to complete tasks in a responsible and efficient manner will be of benefit to your store’s team. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to speaking with you soon. I will call next week to see if there is a time to meet.

Sincerely,

Joseph Applicant
