Sample Answer Letter Of Information (Personal Letter)

Dear Mike,

I am writing this letter to appreciate your kind gesture towards looking after my house and pet while I am away. I can’t thank you enough for this.

As you know I will be away on a week vacation from work and I was so happy when you volunteered to watch my parrot. I’ve written my mobile numbers on a sticky note which I’ve left on the fridge, I have also written my email address alongside the number. You can use whichever means suits you to contact me. I will be available anytime you need me.

My parrot tends to be calm around strangers but once it gets used to you, he will be all over you. He eats 3 times a day at a 6-8 hours interval. You have to take him out in the evening for fresh air. I only put him in the cage at night but during the day he is free to move around. Don’t worry he has his manners so he won’t make any mess. Moreover, remember to play some cool music once a day.

Since you won’t be staying there, there aren’t any chores to do except checking the mailbox and picking up the newspapers.

Once again I am grateful for agreeing to this.

Best regards,
Stefan Eko

You are looking for a full-time job, and recently you saw a job opening in an advertisement.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this letter to apply for the job opening in your company which was posted in the Newspaper Ad session.

My name is Vishu Anand, I am a fresh graduate of Business Administration from the University of Mumbai. Since I am fresh out of college I would love for your company to be the first company I work with.

In the advertisement you made, you listed different vacant positions and I will love to apply for the post of Branch Manager. I think it is best suitable for me based on my course and it will be an avenue to make use of my skills and also gather more experience.

During my college days I used to work part-time as a Personal Assistant to the deputy manager in a textile company, I made arrangements, set schedules and appointments, corrected documents and made sure the day to day itinerary was set. I am also skilled in handling different projects and executing them with effectiveness. I am a very dedicated, detail-oriented and time conscious worker. I have attached a copy of my resume to this later.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. If you need any further details, please do not hesitate to call me.

Yours faithfully,
Gillton Mark.

Sample Answer Letter Of Application (Formal Letter)

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to apply for the part-time weekend job at your hotel which was advertised in the newspaper on 2nd April 2021.

My name is Sonia Kapoor, I am currently studying Hotel Management at Chandigarh Institute of Hotel Management & Catering Technology and I am very fluent in English and Hindi. This job opportunity would be enlightening since it is in line with my present course.

I have worked as an innkeeper with a Holiday Inn in Mumbai from January 2019 till December 2020. I was responsible for communicating with clients, handling client check-in and check out, making sure the inn runs smoothly and so on. I also have some experience as a receptionist. I believe my job experience would help me to execute my duties with great effect in your hotel.

The job description in the newspaper does not give a vivid explanation of the duties. Would you kindly give me some details about the tasks that I will be assigned to do and if you need any particular skills? I can start with immediate effect and can work for the whole day every weekend.

Please if you need further information in regards to my job experience and education. I will be able to provide references for my experience. I have also attached a copy of my resume to this letter.

Looking forward to a suitable response from you.

Yours Faithfully,
Camren Smith
