Mr. Aziz,

I would like to apply for the Job of shop manager, which I see advertised in the local paper. I am 2O years old. I was born in France but my family moved to England, when I was 12 and I am living here ever since. I have left school 3 years ago and since then I am having several jobs in shops. For the past 6 months I am working in Halls department store. The manager has been saying that he is willing to give me a reference.

I speak English and French fluently and I have learnt German since I left school, so I speak some German too.

I hope you will consider my application.

Yours sincerely,

Louise Brett.
