Dear Director,

A teaching position at your school has long been a career objective of mine. Now that I’ve earned my Texas Childcare Credential, I’m eager to apply for a position on your childcare team.

Sales Manager
FreeWire International
1633 Forest Hill Blvd.
Oak Forest, IL 12345

Dear Manager,

I believe I can expedite the signing of your pending agreement with the government of Brazil. Please read on to see why I believe this is true.

As your contract negotiator, here’s the ammunition I bring to the table:

• Experience negotiating three major telecommunications contracts with South American governments (Argentina, Costa Rica, and Peru).

• A firm record of closing sales with better-than-expected profit margins.

• Fluency (written and spoken) in the “big four” languages used in most business transactions around the world.

Since your fiscal year is nearly at its end, I suspect you are eager to see your contract finalized. I suggest we speak soon. I can be reached at 123-555-1234.

I look forward to representing you. Thank you!

Sincerely yours,

Heather Buchner

Dear Director,

With the rise in medical emergencies in the Indianapolis area, you might need my services in your production department. I am an experienced production-line manager, and I understand how to streamline procedures and motivate employees.

I’d like to discuss with you how I could offer a hand as your full-time production manager, as a consultant, or as a union mediator.

Director of Business Development
Randall, Jerneys and Calpert Inc.
301 Stratford Drive
Tempe, AZ 12345

Dear Director,

There’s a reason why:
- Friends hand me the dinner bill to divvy up
- My checkbook always balances at the end of each month
- My three kids are never late for events
- Community groups look to me to organize events

I’m a “detail person” –the kind of person you need as your administrative assistant.

For the last five years, I’ve handled all the scheduling, finances, and logistics for my family of five. It’s time for me to get back into the corporate work force and put my organizational talents to use there.

I’ll contact your Human Resources Department in the next few days to see how you or one of your associates might need administrative assistance.

Thank you!

Director of Human Resources
Procter and Gamble
123 Highland Park Blvd.
New York, NY 12345

Dear Director,

I would like to submit the enclosed resume for your opening as sales analyst. After carefully reading about the position on your website, I’m confident that I am fully qualified for the position and would appreciate a job interview.

In the job posting, you mention that Procter and Gamble is expanding its New Jersey operations and that the sales analyst would be involved in that expansion. I would like to understand more about that involvement, because I have relatives in New Jersey and might be interested in eventually moving to that state.

I am available for interviews any time before the end of this month. Please call or email me at the above contact information.

Sincerely yours,

Linda Yee

General Manager
Car Imports, Ltd.
0010 Golden Row
Reno, NV 12345

Dear Manager,

Fate seems to have dealt me the right name: Chase. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve chased my dreams and, as my resume tells you, scored pretty high.

As a new graduate, I’m ready to continue the chase-this time on behalf of an employer such as YOU!

Seriously, I know I’ll make a good customer service representative. I’m skilled at talking people through their problems and coming up with creative solutions. With just a little coaching, I know I can learn your product line quickly.

Could I have a short interview so that you can see how well I think on my feet? I’m available anytime next week.

Thank you very much!

Sincerely,

Linda Chase
