Subject: job application

Dear Mr. Smith,

I am writing to you regarding the job opening I saw on today's newspaper for a tourist guide in Edimburgh.

I would like to submit an application for the post. Please find my C.V. attached.

As an experienced teacher who has worked for five years in a high school and someone who travels a lot and knows your city very well, I think that I meet all of the requirements you mention in your advertisement:

• Knowledge of the city's culture because of my degree in History of Great Britain.
• Ability to communicate with people in general, because I managed my last company for seven years and I was in charge of a group of 25 workers who confronted different and difficult situations.
• I speak fluent English, am a native speaker of Spanish and I speak a little French.
• I do not have any experience as a tourist guide, but I think I could do very well.

If you require any further information or an interview, please contact me at +00346XXXXXXXX or e-mail me at xxxxxxxxx@hotmail.com

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,

Josefina Mxxxxx
