Manager for Employment
Simple Travel

Dear Ms. Techie, (If possible address your letter to a specific individual)
(State position applied for)
The management trainee position you advertised in today’s The Age greatly interests me. The Simple Travel has always served as a landmark for me when I travel. I would like to contribute to their continued growth.
I have enclosed my résumé for your review.
(Sell yourself )
In May (2004), I will be graduating from RMIT University with a degree in business.
While in school, I developed strong organisational and customer service skills. As a dormitory assistant, I organized events, led meetings, and assisted students. As treasurer of the Business Society, I maintained the budget and presented budget reports. My summer jobs also required extensive interaction with the public.
I believe these experiences have prepared me for your management trainee position.
(Request an interview)
I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss my qualifications more extensively in an interview.
I can be reached at 03 9999 9999.
Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
John share (Sign your cover letter)
