Dear Sir or Madam,

I’ve seen the advertisement you wrote for a weekend job as a tourist guide in the Milan city center (American spelling just for your knowledge. "Centre" is the proper English spelling). I would really like to apply for this job since I think I have both great interpersonal and professional skills that suit the opening.

I’m really interested in this job because I think this is a good opportunity for me to put into practice what I’ve studied. I’m a foreign languages student, and working with foreign tourist would allow me to exercise my Chinese and English. Moreover, a weekend job is ideal because I have to keep studying.

I think I can apply for this job since I really enjoy working with people and I love making small talk with strangers. In my opinion, this profession requires you to establish good relations with the tourists you serve. Past experiences make me qualified to do so. In addiction, I love history and I know a lot about the Milan tourist attractions because I live near the city centre. I’ve also been going there sightseeing for years.

Finally, I also have relevant experiences in a similar job. In May 2013, I was hired into a temporary job position where I gained customer service experience with foreign custormers at a local motorcycle store. In university, I also attended linguistic courses for tourist guides in Milan.

For these reasons I think you can consider seriously my application as a valuable and reliable one.
Thank you for your attention,

Kind regards,

Sara Garavaglia
