Many thanks for your application for the position of part-time nursery assistant.
As you can imagine we have had a lot of interest in the post and many very good applicants. It has been very hard to make a choice. However, I am pleased to offer you the post on three months probation. I am taking on two people to split the hours between then and at the end of the probationary period I hope to offer one person the post of permanent part-time deputy manager and confirm the other as permanent part-time nursery assistant. I hope that this is acceptable to you.
I have enclosed details of schedules etc and look forward to seeing you on your first day,
