dear mr. cavendish，
i saw your advertisement in the local paper this evening，and i wonder if you would consider me for a job as a waiter this summer.
i am seventeen years old and at present i am studying english and economics. when i leave school， i hope to take a course in hotel management. during the school holidays last summer， i worked as a waiter at the central hotel. the headwaiter there， mr. macintosh， will be pleased to send you a recommendation for me.
i would prefer to work in your hotel in filey because it is near my home. however， if there isn’t any job there for me， perhaps you could consider me for the scarborough hotel.
i would be pleased if you will send me information about the pay and conditions of the job to be offered. i will be free to begin work in the fourth week of july when the school holidays start.
yours sincerely，
