INTRODUCTION:
I am writing in hopes of acquiring the position of “Fitness Attendant;” located in the Recreation and Wellness Center facility.

EXPLAIN WHY YOU THINK YOU WOULD BE THE BEST FOR THE POSITION YOU ARE APPLYING FOR: PROVIDE FORMER EXPERIENCE TO ESTABLISH CREDIT TO WHAT YOU ARE STATING
Throughout my employment history, I have developed many of the characteristics listed in the job requirements for becoming a Fitness Attendant, which I believe makes me an excellent candidate for the job. My current employment at Marco’s Pizzeria has provided me with great customer service skills and abilities, which include problem solving techniques, the importance that a first impression has on others, a positive attitude, and a friendly persona.   I am an outgoing, hardworking, and an enthusiastic person (especially when it comes to working out).   In my previous experience as a Peer Mentor for the SLS 1501 Strategies for Success Class, I found that helping other students here at UCF as one of my passions. I feel I am very approachable and enjoy helping others attain their goals.   I take a personal interest in fitness and I am committed to working out on a daily basis.   I wish to excel within the Rec and Wellness Center Community; I want to one day teach my own ‘Group Exercise Classes’ or become a ‘Personal Trainer.’   Although I am not currently up-to-date with my CPR certifications, I will meet the requirement within the first 30 days of hire.

CLOSING:
I look forward to further...
