Dear Sir /Madam
APPLICATION FOR AVAILABLE JOB
This is my formal application for the job mentioned above.
I have studied Horticulture at Cape Peninsula University of Technology.
Currently I am unemployed and I am looking for the job that will groom me and enable me to grow in terms of knowledge and skills .Recently I have worked at STODELS as a consultant and I eventually became a nursery specialist. I am currently studying at PGCE at UNISA and I’m doing my first year.
During my studies, I worked at Cape Peninsula University of Technology Nursery for four months. This provided me with the opportunity to learn a considerable amount of facts about landscape design, irrigation, plant sales, calibration, and pruning.
To broaden my skills I have also worked in other departments like - Goodwood Day Hospital and Stikland Hospital as an Admin Clerk.
Although I enjoy working within a team, I am just as well able to take on tasks independently. My previous work experiences in an Educational Institution (CPUT) enabled me to develop good communication skills that allow me to present my ideas confidently, convincingly and with fluency. Friends and acquaintances unanimously testify to the fact that I relate to people easily and that I have a high capacity to adapt quickly to new surroundings and situations.
I have learnt to work towards, and achieve my aims with great commitment and perseverance.
Since my experience and expertise fit your requirements so closely, I am convinced that my working at your department would be to your complete satisfaction.
I hope my application will receive your consideration and I am looking forward to meeting you and answer all further questions in person.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
N. Vika
