Read the letter of application Mikhail Konstantinov has written to the hotel manager. Think what you would change to improve it, and write your version. Take into consideration the requirements from the job advertisement below.

Grand Hotel Volga is looking for a receptionist The successful candidate should have: v excellent communication skills v fluent English v sense of responsibility v ability to work well under pressure Relevant experience is a plus but not essential   We provide: v excellent working conditions. v flexible working hours v competitive salary and benefits Please send your c/v to the Human Resources manager: Natalia Andreeva by e-mail: [e-mail]

Dear Sir/Madam,   I saw your advertisement last week and decided to write. I think the job of receptionist will be good for me.   At the moment, I am a 2^nd year student of tourism and I would like to work in your hotel – I have been to the hotel several times taking part in different seminars and I liked it very much. It will be cool to work there! My knowledge of English and Spanish will help me to communicate with customers.   I have worked in a travel agency for six months and it was not that interesting as the job of a receptionist in your hotel will be. Helping my Mum in a book shop was extremely boring but at least it gave me some experience of dealing with angry customers.   I am sending my c/v in the attachment. Don’t hesitate to contact me at any time.   Best wishes,   Konstantinov Mikhail Konstantinov

3. YOU ARE REFEREE

1. You are a referee to one of your students. But you don’t know how to characterize him / her. Look through the characteristic Mrs. Morrison gave to one of her students. Make-up the plan to this characteristic. Use it as a pattern for future work.

I have known Mr. Brown for 5 years as a student at our University.

Mr. Brown is an excellent student in French. He has scientifically oriented mind, a desire to work and master foreign language, and experience in working as a translator / interpreter.

He is gifted and differs from the other students in his preparation for French lessons. His essays, projects on the topics “French Literature in the XIX Century”, “Modern French Phonetics”, “French Traditions and Customs” made a great impression on me. He is hardworking and organized.

While studying he took part and won the first prize at the competition among the fourth year students in French.

I can also state that comparing him with the other students in our University I came to the conclusion that he has a high intellectual ability. He can solve different problems and tasks himself. Mr. Brown has a quick reaction to changing situations and he is able to find the right solution.

Mr. Brown is perfect in spoken French, French Grammar, Phonetics, French Literature.

As far as I know he has been working as an interpreter at Trade Company EPQ for three years.

Mr. Brown has a great potential to study and to work. He is an initiative student. He helped in organizing a conference at our University on the problems of Post Graduate Courses.

He is highly motivated to pursue his Graduate study and he is serious in achieving his goals. His marks in French were only excellent. He obtained good skills in conducting scientific research.

Mr. Brown has a strong character. He deals with people easily.

It seems to me that Mr. Brown has a big potential and future in the chosen field as a graduate student.
