Dear Mr P. Smith, Manager

I am writing in response to your online advertisement looking a sales assistant to work in a

gift shop. And I wish to apply for that position of sales assistant.

I am an sixteen year old that always is thinking in money and to improve himself. I intend to
pursue a career as a seller when finish my education but I also think that if you wanna sell
things you don't have to study for that, I just see sells as a hobbit. With this in my mind, I
hope to gain as much relevant experience as possible while I am still a student. I would
welcome the opportunity to work with and learn a successful business company as the
national museum gift shop.

I gained considerable work experience at a local sales shop the last summer where I was the
better seller. Durning my work placements there, I work alongside other sellers, contributed
to the business and supervised the other young sellers.

I also sat in on staff meetings and coordinated a very successful pay day. Additionally as a
keen athlete an artist and been teach sells by my dad I feel confident to be suited in that
position.

I would be delighted to attend an internet at your convenience and have attached my CV for
your consideration. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further
information.

Your sincerely

Jua
