The Talbots, Inc. US-MA-Wellesley
123 Fashion Drive
Lansing, MI 48933
Dear Mrs Price:
I am interested in applying for the position of Sales Associate at The Talbots. I
learned about this opportunity from my teacher, Annie Wojo who has worked as a
Sales Associate at your business. Mrs. Wojo has told me of the quality and
professional care of customers at your company. I believe that my skills and
personal traits make me an excellent candidate for this position.
As you will see on my enclosed resume, I completed the Fashion and Design class at
the ERESA Career Preparation Center during my senior year of high school. As a part
of the class I was exposed to several areas within the fashion industry where I
learned a variety of tasks related to retail, service, visual merchandising, and
display. This experience has given me the confidence that a career in the field of
retail is the right one for me. I plan to continue my education at Lansing Community
College.
I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you for an interview. I can be
reached at (517) 930-1866 at your convenience. I am excited about the possibility
of working at The Talbots and practicing the skills I have acquired from my
education.
Sincerely,
Lydia Stevens
