Dear Sir or Madam
In reply to your advertisement in "The Star" on Monday, November 14th, I would like to apply for the position of
a social worker with your Council.
As you can see from my enclosed curriculum vitae, I am a twenty-six-year old graduate from the University of
Cambridge, where I read the social sciences.
Since graduating I have had considerable practical training in dealing with handicapped children of all ages. Dur-
ing the two years in which I was employed as a teacher in Paris, I spent my vacations in a holiday centre, which has
been established especially to cater for the needs of the mentally and physically disabled. I feel that the experience I
gained there has furnished me with an insight into the problems such people face.
Since returning to England I have been engaged in doing voluntary social work at local schools in Northampton,
and now extremely keen to broaden my horizons at an establishment such as yours.
Should you wish to pursue my application, I would be able available for an interview at your convenience. Perhaps
you could contact me at the following phone number: (052)62743892.
Yours faithfully, John Brown.
