Dear Mr. Russell,
While I was searching a good opportunity, I came across the current opening for an Interior designer’s position in your organization and after knowing the requirements I felt that my qualification and experience is a perfect match to the position.
I have done my graduation in Interior Designing from Fine Arts College, Manchester. After the completion of my course, I joined an art gallery as an intern. Spending six fruitful months there, I joined Flairs’ as assistant designer. During my tenure I worked for many clients who were very pleased with my work as I gave them the right flair which was according to their choice.
I am enclosing my resume and design to give you a detail idea about my education, experience and creativity. I am looking for a personal interview to discuss how my experience and skills can be useful for you.
Please contact me on the above given address.
Thank You,
Emily Johns
