Dear Sir/Madam,
Please find enclosed my CV in application for the position of Editorial Assistant for House of Fraser.
While completing my university degree in economics and professional writing, I gained experience in researching, writing, and editing for both business and media publications, as well as a knowledge of economics and financial markets. I regularly used Microsoft Office, InDesign, and other programs on both Mac and PC computers and I am able to use a variety of social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. I was top of my copyediting class and was selected to do a work study for the university. I kept a WordPress blog, which can be found at , as part of my coursework. Since graduating, I have held a variety of jobs within the equestrian industry, from coordinating the sales and social media in a boutique tack store, to managing a showjumping yard. I have also recently had the opportunity to gain valuable copywriting experience writing policies for the Northwest Community College.
I have a keen interest in fashion and am a regular customer and House of Fraser. I am an efficient worker with an eye for detail and an excellent sense of grammar, spelling, and punctuation, who can maintain a positive attitude when put under pressure. The positions that I have held have required me to take control in a fast-paced work environment and problem solve on a daily basis, as well as meet the needs of various clients while maintaining a pleasant and professional manner. I am now looking to utilise these skills in an editorial role.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my application. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Petria Arienzale
