Your name was given to me by friends in Peterborough. When I leave school I plan to study meteorology. As you will see from the enclosed CV, I have got a GCSE in geography so I already have some knowledge of the subject. In addition, I have also worked for our school radio station. I hope very much that you are able to offer me a placement. I would work hard for your company and make myself as useful as possible. Thank you for reading this application. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Naomi Turner Encl. CV j 89 Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
