    ADVICE FOR COVER LETTER

    Hello gang, so I'm applying for a job at this new gym that just opened up near by. Can anyone tell me if my cover letter is alright? Think it brings some attention to me? Serious comments pls :/ OH AND I CHANGE THE NAMES OF THE STUFFZ

    To the Director of Housekeeping, in regards to a further interview and hopefully, a job. My name is ________ and I’m a Junior at ______ High school. I would be perfect for a job in Housekeeping, and let me explain to you why. I am only 16 years of age, but when it comes down to it, I’m ready to work and help my family financially. I am a mature, hardworking individual with a firm respect for authority, and I pay more attention to detail than anyone I know. My mom, who is what you could call a Germaphobe, expected of us to keep everything in ship-shape. There was no such thing as “spring cleaning”. Cleaning was year round and non-stop. Which meant that me and sibling had to keep everything tidy and in place. We folded laundry, did the gutters, washed the windows, anything that required cleaning, we did it. Its instinct to me to make sure everything is how it should be. I can bring organization and the ability to get anything done in fraction of the time it takes anyone else to. Also, being this could be my first real job, I feel excited at the thought of working and learning from someone who knows so much more than me.

    Sincerely,
    Ahmad

    Too much sugarcoating in my opinion, take it back a bit and proofread carefully.

    (If you're applying for janitor, I doubt there will be much work to be done to get accepted. Btw, if you want to have an interview, save the backstory and fine details for the interview, not just the message requesting an interview.))

    To the Director of Housekeeping regarding a potential job interview,

    My name is Ahmad Taha, and I am currently a Junior at Beaverton High School. I would like to request an interview for a job in housekeeping at (Name of gym). I have been raised by my strict mother, who tought myself and my siblings how to clean, be clean, and have an eye for detail. She has raised me into a respectful, polite young man and I would like to have a job so I may support my family, to repay her for the lessons and care she has given me. I would like to arrange a meeting with you so that we can further discuss how I may be able to benefit the gym and it's customers.

    Please contact me at:
    - 555-555-5555
    - Ahmad@email.com (Make a new email that seems presentable and official)

    Thank you for your time,
    Ahmad Taha

    I don't know what kind of entry level job you expect to have where you need a cover letter and possibly resume? Seems totally overboard to me.



    BRING BACK BT, BRING BACK SAGA, BRING BACK VF, BRING BACK MPGHCRAFT, BRING BACK HABAMON

    Focus on your skills and what makes you stand out.

    You already wrote a lot about your skillset but you didn't go much into detail about each of them.

    How are you hardworking? What makes you mature?

    In general, just sell yourself. Make you stand out. In the real world, you would be applying against hundreds of other people who are just as good as you, if not better. Make a lasting impression by writing something the person would surely remember you for.

    Also a good tip would be to add something about the gym itself and how you can make a difference to it. Let them know your not there just for the money, rather for the experience or whatever you want.

    Hope this helps

    Exactly what I was thinking.
    What kind of employer expects a cover letter for a fucking house-cleaner?
