Dear Manager,
I hope
this
letter finds you well. I'm Srinivas, writing this
letter to apply for the job
you posted in the local newspaper. Currently, I'm working as a crew member in a pizza restaurant located downtown, where my main duties are, to take the customers, make the orders, and do the packaging and stuff, it is a very good place
to work and I always enjoyed working here. However
, I want to quit the job
, as I'm very interested in customer service, and without the dine-in option, I have not been involved in much customer service lately, and also
this
place
is very far from my current house and I cannot afford to stay in the downtown.
I would like to apply for the job
in your restaurant because your place
is very popular in the town and with the dine-in option, I could spend a lot of time interacting with the customers, and it's very near to my place
. I do have smartserve certification which would be an additional benefit to work in this
field.
I would like to inform you that I can attend the interview at any time next week. I would be pleased if you consider me and hire me for this
job
, Looking forward to working with you.
Yours Faithfully,
Srinivas Varma.Submitted by varmaib1 on

Task Response
1. **Task Response Improvement:** To enhance your score in task response, ensure that each of the bullet points in the task is clearly and fully addressed in separate paragraphs. While your letter mentions your current role, your suitability for the new job, and your availability for an interview, there could be more detailed explanations of how your experience and skills make you a perfect match for the position. Expanding on your customer service philosophy, for instance, could provide a stronger argument for your suitability.
Coherence and Cohesion
2. **Coherence and Cohesion:** Your letter has a decent flow of ideas, but you can improve your score by focusing on clearer transitions between paragraphs and a more logical structure. Each paragraph should begin with a topic sentence that introduces the main idea of the paragraph. Additionally, using a wider range of linking words can help in making the progression of ideas smoother. Avoid abrupt endings to paragraphs to enhance flow.
Greeting and Closing
3. **Closing Improvement:** While you used a formal closing, enhancing the professional tone of the entire letter will improve your overall impression. Consider using more formal language throughout and avoid informal expressions. Also, be sure to proofread your letter for any spelling or grammar errors to maintain a professional tone.
