Example

Subject: Application for the glazier position

Dear Sir or Madam,

Your company is looking for a glazier for installation and repair work. I have worked in glazing for six years, in the workshop and on site.

As a qualified glazier, I work at Verre et Stores Riviera Sàrl, cutting and fitting insulating glass units, shower screens and glass balustrades, and doing repair call-outs for homes and shops. I drive a van with a glass rack and am trained on vacuum lifters.

Your structural glass work on contemporary buildings interests me: it is a field I want to grow in.

I am available from 1 April and would be glad to meet you.

Kind regards,
Steve Rochat
