Dear Sir,


I am enquiring about the position you have advertised on Directgov/jobs. The reference is MCC/20935.


I have lived in Grangetown for seven years and have 3 daughters. Two are in secondary school and the youngest is in primary. I am a volunteer for The Cleveland Fire Support, in which I help with presentations in schools, colleges and community centres. I also supply information to the public helping promote public awareness.


I am eager to return to work after a long time of caring for my family. The qualities I can bring to the job include being personable and non judgemental; hard working and loyal; trustworthy and easy to talk to. As a parent I have developed my carer nature. I am able to think on my feet and notice when all is not right with a person's health.

Zoo- Good luck. The letter must have done the trick. Before I got my present job, I practiced interviewing ahead of time. If you can, I'd recommend trying it. You'll feel more relaxed and confident. Food for thought! Thumbs up to you!
