Respected Sir/Madam,
With reference to the ad in your classified in The New York Times dated June 8, 2011 I would like to apply for the post of florist in your event management company. I am well organized and laborious and well qualified for this post of florist. Flowers, so delicate and so beautiful imply many things. I do understand that deploying flowers is an art and because of my extensive study I am sure that I would be able to do justice to this post. I do wish to offer my services to and make good use of my skill and aesthetic sense.
I have done my Graduation in Home science. I have done courses in flower decorations and arrangements. I have great sense of color combination, an eye for aesthetic beauty and excellent judging ability as to arrangement of flowers. I have a deft hand in selecting correct flowers with correct color combination for different occasions. I have been doing this as a hobby since 10 years and joined an event management firm to work as a professional florist 5 years back.
With a five year experience of a florist in ABC event Management Company I have made decorations for parties, birthdays, marriages, family functions, festivals and much more. I have made all the arrangements in five star hotels during ABC Meet of Managers. My responsibilities as a florist include selecting the patterns, placing the order, monitoring, executing the decoration, budgeting and supervising.
Here is the list of the documents enclosed with this cover letter.
I hope that you find these documents worthwhile. I am eager to hear from you with the response in the affirmative. I assure you that if selected, I will not let you down and would prove to be an asset for your company.
