Dear Mr Jackson
I am sending you this covering letter and CV in regard to the position advertised in <enter
where job was found>. With these documents, I would like to apply to the position of
retail assistant.
I have plenty of experience as a retail assistant as you will see on my CV. My longest
serving role was with <enter name of company>. Here I learnt the core features of a good
retail assistant and every day I strived to make sure I left understanding something about
my role that I didn’t know in the morning.
I really enjoy the role of the retail assistant. Many people see this job as mundane, but my
view is that every customer you see brings something different so every day has new
challenges. Furthermore, for me the retail assistant role is an important one to have in any
company because you are the face of the company to that customer, so there is a high
level of responsibility to take into account as well.
Please take the time to read my resume, which I believe you will find more than suitable
for this role. If you want to discuss my application, please call me on <enter a phone
number>.
