Dear Sir,

With reference to your advertisement in the ……………………(Newspaper Name) dated ……………………,I beg to apply for the post of a General Clerk, an opportunity that I have just been looking for, because only yesterday my services have been retrenched in the Army and Navy Stores as I was the last hand to be employed and the management wanted to economize alter during the usually slack winter season.

Since I like salesmanship and dealing with customers on the spot, the post of a General Clerk in your grocers stores holds a fascinating appeal to me as a career.

So far as my educational qualifications are concerned, I am a first class Arts Graduate from …………………… University with distinc­tion in Economics.

My previous employers were ……………………(company name), who wanted a temporary hand during the Christmas Season, and now fate and fortune have brought me to your door.

In my previous appointment, in addition to waiting on the customers in various departments, I have been responsible for checking and stocking goods on shelves and counters, keeping inventory of stock, setting up floor and counter displays.

I am confident that I can meet your requirement fully.

An interview will assure you that I can fill this post to your complete satisfaction.

Yours faithfully,
