I am going to be doing work experience from the 23rd of June to the 4th of July next year and I want to write a letter to my local solicitors asking if they would be able to let me do work experience there. What I need to know is how do I end the letter and how would I start it? For example would yours faithfully be polite and would Dear sir or madam be polite? because I know there is a familiar way and a polite way

Dear Sir or Madam would be polite and close with Sincerely.

Dear sir or madam is definitely a lot nicer than To Whom It May Concern. Yours faithfully is a bit too personal, especially if you are wanting work. Try sincerely.

Do a little research before writing those letters, to find out exactly how they need to be addressed. When writing your letter, begin by stating Dear ______, (insert Mr. or Mrs, or Ms. whichever may apply based on your reserarch. That way, you will be addressing the proper person who will read the letter and actually hire you for your work experience this summer. You can end your letter with Sincerely, (Your name).

Dear Sir/Madam and end with Sincerely~ ~ ~ that is the standard and proper etiquette of secretarial skills when addressing unknown areas inquiring regarding work.
Always has been for the last 30 years. Very cordial, and etiquette plus.
You will be very safe with that heading and ending..
good luck.

In the start you may write, Dear Sir, or Respected Sir. In the end you may write, yours faithfully, or yours truly or yours truly,I remain.

Yours sincerely. The rule is, if you address a person by name you end "yours sincerely" and if you start with "Dear Sir/Madam" you end with "Yours faithfully" or "Yours truly". Ms Williams is more polite than Laura Williams.

I will contact you next week to follow up and to find out what the next step would be. Or the bolder approach recommended by David Perry of the Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters advises: I will call you Tuesday July 10th at 8:30 am to arrange a time for the two of us to talk. ( and call at that exact time and day!) Always be the one to be responsible to follow up so when you do call you can state they are expecting my call!
