Dear Mrs. Barrett,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing in response to the advertisement seeking assistance in you home. I looking forward to the opportunity to help you over the next summer. I am Abhishek, a student at XYZ university in the town. I just moved from my hometown and have been looking for a part time job to earn a little on side while studying.

I have previously work as a room attendant at Hilton hotels and am proficient with the skills required to be a house help. I am an amazing cook, and can prepare meals for you. I can help you out with your laundry, cleaning, vacuuming, gardening and any other household chores you want help in. I would like to take up this job so that i can earn a little extra while studying and save up to buy a car before I graduate.

I am able to work on all week days, i.e. from Monday to Friday, after 5pm, because that’s when I am done with my classes.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of working with you and assisting you in your home.

Sincerely,

Abhishek
