Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to apply for the position of waiter at your café. I saw the advertisement in your window yesterday.
I am 22 years old and I have one year of experience in a small restaurant. I can serve customers, take orders, and work in a team. I have good English and basic computer skills. I am friendly and I work hard. I always arrive on time and I do not mind working at weekends.
I would like to ask about the start date and the working hours for this job. Could you please tell me when the job starts? Also, do you need me to work in the evenings? I am available all days apart from Mondays.
I will send you my CV if you need it. Thank you for reading my letter. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Maria Lopez
