If you are seeking a weekend job then before writing your covering letter, take a look at your skills and what you can offer to a company. What you are hoping to do at a weekend will depend on your skills. You may be looking for a position in retail or maybe some restaurant or bar work. Whatever work you are seeking, please ensure that when writing your letter to a potential new employer that you focus on the skills that you can offer to them.
Remember that a cover letter is your chance to sell your skills to an employer so have a good think about what they are looking for and use this during your letter.
To see an example that you can use as a guide, please see the below example. You should amend this example before using it for your job applications.
