Dear Mr John I am writing to express my interest in the recent weekend job opportunity in your
hotel
, where I happened to be residing presently. My name is Victor, I am 40 years old and from New York City, where I work as the manager at the famous Transcrop Hilton
hotel
, But I am currently on vacation in Florida and I have been staying at the Palms
Hotel
here for the
last
three days. I was previously the receptionist at the Transcrop
hotel
for 10 years, where I attended to over an average of 50 customers on a daily basis in the 200 bedroom 5-star
hotel
.
Subsequently
my ability to lead got me promoted to a managerial position.
As a result
of these experiences, I believe that I am best qualified for
this
short term role you advertised.
Moreover
, since I am already at the
hotel
, it will be an easy transition. I am aware that different hotels operate differently, so I would like to kindly find out if exactly is expected of me in terms of my job description.
