Dear Sir,

I am writing to apply for the job of Receptionist - General Assistant, which you advertised recently in Hotel and Catering Magazine. I am 25 years old. I have a secretarial Diploma. Since leaving college 1 have had several years’ experience doing secretarial and general office work in Aktau, including several months as receptionist for a large company. At the moment I am working as a receptionist at the Ferns Hotel, a small private hotel in Almaty. I have been employed there for the past six months. I am interested in working as a receptionist in your hotel as I enjoy hotel work and now I would like to broaden my experience. I enclose a photograph and a full curriculum vitae, and I would be happy to send any further details you may require.

Yours faithfully,
Sabina N.
