CV profile and cover email

Develop work and study through a focused writing itinerary.

Writing task

Apply for the fictional Centro Civico Ponte assistant role. Write two texts: a 50–70 word CV profile and a 130–160 word cover email to selezione@centroponte.example. In the profile, name Maya's public-facing experience and two relevant skills. In the email, state the role, connect two vacancy requirements to true CV evidence, describe the changed-workshop problem and what Maya had to do, and mention that she can learn the booking software. Use one past modal and one relative clause with che or cui. Do not invent a qualification or claim that she has been hired.

Revision checklist

Check that the CV profile is not copied into the email. In the email, mark the evidence for two vacancy requirements and the concrete problem-action-result example. Verify the 30 June deadline, formal greeting and closing, past-modal meaning, che or cui link, and the honest statement about the software. Remove any unsupported skill.
