You have seen an advertisement in an English newspaper for a job working in the City Museum shop during the holidays. You decide to apply for the job. Write a letter to the director of the Museum. In your letter: introduce yourself explain what experience and special skills you have explain why you are interested in the job

Dear Sir, I, Lisa Akter, am a student in the Marketing Management course at Toronto Metropolitan University. Recently, I have noticed a
job
vacancy in the city Museum shop.
Moreover
, I am residing just five minutes away from the museum by car.
Hence
, my commute will be very convenient, if I get a
job
there. On top of it, as the schedule is set up only for the holidays, I am full-time available on the weekend. Currently, I am working as a sales representative at Home Depot. I love my current
job
but my academic schedule is totally contradictory with it.
Further
to
this
, I have been working there for almost more than a year and my experience fits perfectly with the
job
requirements provided in the ad.
In addition
to
this
, I introduced every corner of the museum,
also
known to local people's preferences.
However
, I believe you will not get a better candidate than me. I have already applied through the
job
portal but if you want, I can come with my resume in person. Please let me know if you need any additional documents. I am looking forward to hearing from you and await your prompt response on
this
matter. With regards, Lisa Akter
