Job Application
May 22nd
Dear Mr. Cavendish,
I saw your advertisement in the local paper this evening，and I wonder if you would consider me for a job as a waiter this summer.
I am seventeen years old and at present I am studying English and economics. When I leave school, I hope to take a course in hotel management. During the school holidays last summer, I worked as a waiter at the Central Hotel. The headwaiter there, Mr. Macintosh, will be pleased to send you a recommendation for me.
I would prefer to work in your hotel in Filey because it is near my home. However, if there isn’t any job there for me, perhaps you could consider me for the Scarborough Hotel.
I would be pleased if you will send me information about the pay and conditions of the job to be offered. I will be free to begin work in the fourth week of July when the school holidays start.
Yours sincerely,
Peter Tuck

行文點(diǎn)評(píng)
這是一封范例的求職信。第一段開門見山，表明寫信的目標(biāo)是求職。同時(shí)，也注明了消息起源和應(yīng)聘職位。第二段開端介紹求職者的情況，(注意：所寫的情況最好能體現(xiàn)出你十分合適所應(yīng)聘的職位)。信中第三段特別陳述了一個(gè)不情之請并闡明原因。最后一段表明自己盼望得到回復(fù)，并闡明自己可以開端工作的具體時(shí)間。
這封信符合求職信的結(jié)構(gòu)請求，語言簡潔，語氣禮貌慷慨。

求職信
親愛的卡文迪斯先生：
我在今晚的處所報(bào)紙上看到了你們的廣告，我想在這個(gè)夏天做一份服務(wù)生的工作，敬請考慮。
我十七歲，現(xiàn)在正在學(xué)習(xí)英文和經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)。畢業(yè)后，我盼望能夠?qū)W習(xí)酒店管理課程。去年暑假時(shí)，我在中央酒店作服務(wù)生。那兒的領(lǐng)班麥金托什先生會(huì)很樂意向您寄交一封關(guān)于我的推薦信。
我比較愛好在您的費(fèi)雷酒店工作，因?yàn)槟莾弘x我家不遠(yuǎn)。但如果那兒沒有我的工作機(jī)會(huì)，也許您可以考慮讓我去斯卡伯勒酒店。
如果您能寄給我有關(guān)這份工作的薪水和工作環(huán)境的一些信息，我會(huì)非常高興。我可以從七月的第四個(gè)星期開端工作，那時(shí)學(xué)校開端放假了。
