Dear Mr. Peterson,
I would like to apply for a job of a shop manager, which I saw advertised in the local paper.
I am twenty years old. I was born in France but my family moved to England when I was twelve and I am living here since. I had three jobs after I left school. For the past six months I work in Halls department store. My manager says that he was never displeased with me. He promises to give me a good reference.
I am speaking English and French fluently and after leaving school I havestarted learning German. I already learn it for 3 weeks.
I hope you will consider my application.
Yours sincerely,
Louise Brett
