•         Dear Hiring Manager,

•         I am interested in the part-time position at SPEAK UP advertised in The TUOI TRE Newspaper. I have good experience in product promotion for over two years. Not only have I shown and ridden horses, but I have also had extensive experience assisting in a barn. Through working with horses, I have acquired a thorough knowledge of horses, tack, and equine apparel for both horse and rider.

•         While I have equine experience, I also have excellent communication skills and an aptitude for customer service. My past experience as a volunteer at Kentucky 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, partnered with my good knowledge, would make me an asset to your company.

•         Thank you for your consideration. I can be reached at 0908 652 265. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

•         Sincerely,

•         Your Signature
