Dear Sir or Madam

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing this letter to express my interest to do part-time unpaid work at the museum and would
really be honoured if given this opportunity.

I am an under-graduate student majoring in Art History at the University of Michigan and if given the
chance to work for the museum, it would help in invigorating my skills and used in a work atmosphere.
Additionally, if working for the museum, the university will award me extra credit score, which would
really help uplift my overall academic score.

Furthermore, I have very good communication skills and have in-depth knowledge of the Renaissance
period which I am sure can be utilized to the museum’s advantage. Moreover, I am also a very good
team-player and am open to engaging in challenging tasks that will help hone my skills further.

In addition to the skills and qualities mentioned, I am also ready to start next week starting Monday and
will be able to work the evening shift. I really hope that you will consider me for the position and
awaiting your positive response for the request.

Sincerely,

Tom Hollands2136-65457AC-A012-001
