Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to apply for the position of candidate attorney at the Centre for Child Law. This position interests me because of my passion for children’s rights and my desire to work in an organisation that is dedicated to protecting and promoting these rights.
I am a law graduate from the University of Pretoria and I have completed my articles of clerkship. I am therefore admitted as an attorney of the High Court of South Africa. I have excellent academic results and I am a hard worker who is always willing to go the extra mile. I am also a team player and I have excellent communication skills.
I am confident that I have the necessary skills and attributes to excel in this position and I am eager to put my skills to use in an organisation that is making a difference in the lives of children. I would therefore appreciate the opportunity to interview for this position.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours sincerely,
Matsobane Mapheto
