Dear Mrs Crufts,

 

I`m writing to apply for the job of animal carer which I saw advertised in the Evening Standard on Friday 27^th.

 

I am 20 years old and come from near Florence in Italy. I have taken a year off my studies to improve my English. I am looking for a part-time job which doesn’t involve working afternoons, as I attend English classes from 1.30 to 5.00 p.m.

 

I have a lot of experience of looking after all kinds of animals, not only because I was brought up on a farm, but also because I am training to be a vet, so I am well-qualified to attend to the animals` health and well-being. I am very fit (I`m a keen runner and swimmer) and I am used to getting up early. My language skills (I speak Italian and French) may be useful if you deal with foreign clients.

 

I enclose my CV and references for your information. If you still have vacancies for this job I would be interested in receiving further information regarding hours and rates of pay.

 

I look forward to hearing from you.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Mathilde Rossi (Miss)
