Dear Chef Puff,

There are many fine bakeries where I could apply for employment. After recently visiting your establishment, I know that Puff's is exactly where I want to work. Chef Gelato was kind enough to show me the bakery and storage facilities while I was visiting as a patron. I came away from my visit convinced that I wanted to become a productive member of your staff. 

My recent certifications in food preparation, purchasing / receiving, baking and management through the Hotel, Restaurant and Institutional Management (HRIM) program at Mercer County Community College allow me to feel confident that I am well prepared to advance my career in the baking industry. I am especially proud that my professors at Mercer allowed me to demonstrate pastry and cake preparation as well as how and when to mix ingredients. Additionally, my visits to food shows and my research on vendors have enhanced my appreciation of the baking industry. I am hoping to start part time now and return to full time employment in a fine bakery immediately after graduation this May as a pastry chef with an Associate in Applied Science degree. 

My resume is enclosed for your review. Next week I will call to ask if you can spare some time to discuss the possibility of joining the baking team at Puff's. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
 
 
 

Barbara Biscoti
