Sample Letter to Previous Employer for Rejoining
Re: Job Application from YOUR NAME
Dear NAME OF EMPLOYER:
I hope you and your family are well. You may remember I was employed at NAME OF BUSINESS as a data processor for 10 years. When my wife was diagnosed with cancer, I left the job abruptly without proper notice to care for her.
She has fully recovered, so I would like to request to be rehired. I had good work reviews from my superior, NAME OF SUPERIOR, and hope you will consider giving me my job back.
I sincerely regret I didn’t depart the company in the best of conditions, but I was overwhelmed with grief and concern about my wife. If you rehire me, I assure you I will work hard for the long-term and not repeat my previous actions.
During the last six months, while at home caring for my wife, I took an online course to upgrade my IT skills. I believe I bring more skills to the job than I had when I left.
I realize the job I did is filled, but I would be willing to do any other job in the data processing or other department.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I can be reached at PHONE NUMBER or by reply to this email at any time and would be happy to meet you and discuss my request.
Sincerely,
YOUR FULL NAME
By Andre Bradley
