Dear sir/madam

I am writing to express my interest in the position of barista at Starbucks. I am a recent college graduate
of Temple University with a bachelor's degree in Music Performance. Being a musician has equipped me
with impeccable people skills, an ability to apply advanced problem solving skills in high stress
environments, and extensive experience working within a team to realize a common goal. I believe my
skills would raise the quality of your staff and increase your clientele. Thank you for your time and
consideration.

Sincerely,

Matthew Jernigan
