Dear Mr Border,

I hold a Certificate III in Retail Operations and have excellent sales and customer service skills.

I am a sports enthusiast and would love to work for a related company that offers a diverse range of opportunities for career progression.

Please refer to my attached resume that further outlines my skills and experience. I am looking forward to discussing the position and how I can contribute to your business at interview.

Yours sincerely
