What the recruiter wants to read

  • Techniques you master: casting, soldering, setting, repairs, jewellery CAD.
  • Your precision, eye for design and how you deal with customers.

Example

Subject: Application for the jeweller position

Dear Ms Gilliand,

Your workshop is looking for a jeweller for bespoke pieces and repairs. I have worked at the bench for six years and particularly enjoy taking a client from sketch to finished piece.

With a federal certificate as a goldsmith, I work at Atelier Or et Lumière, making wedding and engagement rings, carrying out repairs and resizing, and modelling some pieces in CAD before casting. I meet clients for custom orders.

Your pieces in recycled gold and traceable stones reflect the values I want to stand for in my work.

I am available from 1 March and would gladly bring some pieces to an interview.

Kind regards,
Anaïs Gerber
