Dear Ms. Johnson,
I was waiting for this job offer, I would like to become a manager in your restaurant. I am convinced that I am a suitable candidate for this position.
I have 10 years of professional experience. Before I became a restaurant manager, I gained invaluable knowledge at work in the kitchen and as a waiter and a headwaiter. Experience gained at all levels of work in a restaurant, combined with great knowledge and managerial talent, enables me to manage the restaurant very effectively.
As a restaurant manager, I introduced a new menu which was very well evaluated by the restaurant guests. This was the only way to increase the turnover of the restaurant by 70%. I carried out a number of successful promotional activities, which resulted in a larger number of restaurant guests and higher income.
I am a communicative, operative, organized and talented person. I can motivate staff to work even better while maintaining friendly relations. I have a gastronomic education and a good managerial background.
I would be happy to tell you more about myself during a job interview.Sincerely,
Gerald Richardson

I sincerely hope that I have convinced you that it is worth meeting me during the job interview.
