Re: Application for Interior Decorator
I am writing to apply for the Interior Decorator role at [Company Name]. With a practical eye for colour, layout and livable detail, I enjoy turning a client brief into a space that works as well as it looks.
In my recent freelance work, I styled a family home in [suburb or region]. The clients wanted a calm living area that could handle two young children and a dog. I prepared mood boards and floor plans, selected durable fabrics and washable paints, and coordinated a local upholsterer and curtain maker. The project came in on budget and the family moved back into the main rooms within the week we planned, without the usual last-minute delays.
I am particularly interested in [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I would welcome the chance to bring my sourcing and styling skills to your team.
Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I would be glad to discuss how I can contribute to your upcoming projects.
Getting it right
- Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
- Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
- Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
- Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
