Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing in response to your advertisement for a summer job in City Souvenirs. I would like to apply for the position.

I am a 16-year-old student in year ten at secondary school. I am interested in this job because I would like to gain work experience and work with other people my age over the summer.

I have not had any paid work experience yet, but I have helped at school events and done some voluntary work. I am responsible, friendly and eager to learn.

Could you please let me know whether the job is full-time or part-time, and what the working hours are?

I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Anna Brown
