Dear Mr. Smith

I am writing to you in hopes of working at your company. While shopping at Sobeys, I thought it would be a perfect place for youths to work in. I am interested in the position of a cashier. Enclosed with this letter is my resume for your convenience.

As a hardworking student at St.Elizabeth Catholic High School, I acquired several skills that will make me a successful cashier. I have always maintained honour-roll grades and have high math grades in particular. Calculating changes would be a quick and easy task for me. Also, I have experiences as a newspaper carrier and yogurt seller.

Another quality I offer is friendliness. In addition to greeting customers with a smile, I can guarantee you that I’ll be able to satisfy the customer’s inquiries. Lastly, you can trust me to be very punctual.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to working at Sobeys. I am ‘Ready to Serve’!

Sincerely,



Helena An
