In the circus performers cover letter example below the applicant begins by following up on a telephone conversation she had with the employer the previous day.
If you have spoken with the employer already, this is an excellent way to make sure you remain fresh on the mind of the employer.
The sample circus performers cover letter below does this well. The applicant details her prior work experience and also mentions a reference letter which she is including with the cover letter and resume.|

2345 Stardust Ave Reno, NV 55555 555-555-1212 June 16, 1007 Peter Venton Venton Bros. Circus 2654 East Lawn Blvd Pittsburgh, PA 55555 Dear Mr. Venton: Thank you for speaking with me on the phone yesterday regarding the position of Trapeze Artist with Venton Bros. Circus. Per our discussion, I have enclosed my resume and a letter of reference. As you can see, my reference is quite familiar with my prior circus performances. I have been exposed to many of the major carnivals throughout the country and have significant experience in acrobatics and tumbling. As I mentioned on the phone, I have traveled with three carnivals and spent two years with a very popular circus in the Mid-West. This provided me with the opportunity to hone my skills as a Trapeze Artist over the past five years and I believe I have the skills necessary to perform full time with your circus. I will be relocating to the East Coast this summer and am eager to join an attraction with such an exciting history. I will be in Pittsburgh as of July 1st, and will be available to meet with you thereafter. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Gabrielle LeBlanc Enclosures: Resume and reference letter |
