Dear Hiring Manager,

I am interested in the summer position at Sarasota Store advertised in The Sarasotian.

I have excellent communication skills and an aptitude for customer service. My past experience as a volunteer at Sarasota Hospital made it necessary for me to focus on providing quality customer service, and also enabled me to work with all types of people.

I believe that my communication skills, customer service abilities, and positive work ethic would make me an asset to your store.

Thank you for your consideration. I can be reached at firstlastname@gmail.com or 222-222-2222. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Your Signature
