Dear Sir or Madam;
I recently learned about the Second Cook - Pastries position through your
advertisement on HCareers website and I am interested. My skills listed in my
resume closely match those with the position, my passion for baking and pastry
continues to grow. I am eager to learn and experience what you have to offer.
I have a Chef de Cuisine diploma in Culinary Arts from Liaison College, and I am
currently enrolled in my first year of Baking and Pastry Arts Management at Humber
College. The proficiency that I have gained during my years in the culinary business
will lend itself well to the Second Cook Pastries position. I have the abilities to
work well under pressure, keep my station/your kitchen well organized, and to work
cohesively as part of a team. I believe that my past achievements and experiences
will guarantee my success at The Fairmont Banff Springs.
Thank you for taking the time to review my application and I look forward to
meeting with you for further discussions.
Kind regards,
Kenisha Jacobs

Dear Fairmont Banff Springs;

It was very enjoyable to speak with the Sous Chef of the hotel about the Second
Cook Pastries position. I can honestly say after the interview that my skills and
interest are a very good match, and that my desire to work with you and your
culinary team has strengthen.

The reason I applied for the Pastries position was I think of myself working in a
kitchen where I can gain more knowledge and skills in the culinary business, after
the interview I believe The Fairmont Banff Springs is the right place for me to be. I
have a positive feeling that my qualifications will soar, my skill sets will build up to
the standards, and the overall experience will help me in the future. I thank you and
appreciate you for taking the time to interview me. I am very interested in working
with your team and look forward to hearing back from you about the positon.

Kind regards,

Kenisha Jacobs
