How to structure it
Opening
Name the role and, in one line, the strongest reason you're a fit. Skip the throat-clearing.
Middle
One or two paragraphs of real, specific evidence: what you did, and the result. This is where most letters go generic. Yours shouldn't.
Why this employer
One genuine, specific reason you want this job at this company, not any company. Vague enthusiasm reads as a template that wasn't customised.
Close
Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.
Re: Application for Service Station Attendant
I am applying for the Service Station Attendant role at [Company Name]. With practical experience across fuel retail, forecourt safety and shop sales, I can step into the console and keep the site trading smoothly from the first shift.
In my current role I run the console on night shifts at a busy highway site, handling fuel and shop sales, till reconciliation and fuel dip checks on my own. I restocked the drink fridges and oil displays ahead of the morning commuter peak so the shelves stayed full without last-minute scrambling, and I kept the forecourt and spill kits clean and checked so the site passed its compliance walkthrough without follow-up.
I am applying to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I want to work somewhere that takes forecourt safety and customer service seriously, and I would bring the same reliability to your roster.
Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I would welcome the chance to talk about how I can support your site.
Getting it right
- Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
- Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
- Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
- Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
