During a recent plane journey you sat next to a businessman who owns a chain of restaurants. You talked to him and he suggested that you should contact him about a possible job in one of his restaurants. Write a letter to this businessman. In your letter
- remind him when and where you met
- tell him what kind of job you are interested in
- say why you think you would be suitable for the job
Hello Mr. Oliver,
I hope you are doing well. I am Richard Nielson. I wanted to thank you for the engaging conversation we had during the flight from New Jersey to Los Angeles. It was truly valuable to get your insights on how the hospitality industry has evolved over the past few years.
I am reaching out to you with regards to a possible job opening which we had discussed. I am currently looking for a change and would like to inquire if there is a general manager position open at your restaurant.
I carry the relevant experience in managing large restaurants and currently handle a 40-member team for a global chain of restaurants from Los Angeles. I carry the executive presence required to manage High profile clients who also form part of your target audience. I aspire to work under your dynamic leadership and request you to consider my candidature for a role of this nature at your restaurant.
Kindly let me know the next steps to take this forward.
Thank you,
Richard Nielson
