Dear Ms. Hopkins:

Re: Part-Time Cashier Job Posting

As a regular customer at Finner’s, I was excited to see the recent posting for a part-time cashier.  I am always impressed with the customer service I receive when visiting your shop and have been looking for an opportunity to apply my skills and experience in this area.

As requested in the posted ad for this position, I have:

As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can work 18 to 25 hours a week.  The three employers I have worked for have each appreciated my excellent work ethic, ability to work independently, and dedication to providing customers with excellent service.  In my past jobs, I received many customer compliments about my prompt and friendly service.  I also received a staff award for my composed problem-solving in periods of high customer volume and stress.

Thank you for taking the time to review my resume.  I am confident that with my skills and experience I can make a strong positive contribution to the Finner’s team and would appreciate discussing the opportunity with you.  I will contact you next Wednesday, November 28, after 3:00 p.m.  Alternatively, please feel free to call me any time on my cell phone at 613-555-4545.

Sincerely,

Michelle Scott
