    4567 Main Street
    Yokomo, IL 99999
    Dear Mr. Jones:
    Recently, I completed a cooperative experience with an engineering firm
    in Northern California where I was given the responsibility of managing a
    small project. I am looking for the opportunity to perform in this capacity
    for Ganco Engineering. I believe my background and experience will
    help me be an asset to your company in a very short time.
    I have conducted survey and mapping assignments, participated in soil
    mechanics and foundation formation, and performed preliminary
    structural analysis and design for a grocery store. I was given the
    responsibility of producing a general lay-out for a new transportation
    system. I first surveyed the area, produced a traffic analysis and survey,
    researched city rules and regulations for compliance, and wrote a twentyfive page report depicting the feasibility of building a new freeway offramp. My mathematical skills are excellent and I am very conscientious
    about meeting deadlines and completing tasks unsupervised. If given
    the opportunity to accomplish an assignment, I can develop a plan that
    will meet the needs of the project.
    I am very interested in becoming a part of this project after reading your
    company brochure and an article in the Civil Engineering Journal about
    your companys involvement in building a new mall in the area. I can be
    reached at the address and phone number below. Ill be calling your
    office within ten days to inquire on the status of my application. I look
    forward to hearing from you.

    Dear Mr. Reviewer:
    I am graduating in May 2006 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication
    Studies with an option in Organizational Communication from California
    State University, Chico. I am interested in a sales position with your
    company because A&D California Winery has established a worldwide
    reputation in the wine industry and remains family-owned.
    Growing up in an agricultural community has taught me the different
    challenges a person faces when working in the industry. In addition, as a
    senior at Chico State, I learned to deal with a variety of management and
    sales challenges through courses in human resource management,
    speech communication, interpersonal communication, and negotiation.
    Along with my education, my experience as a sales coordinator for ABC
    Farms has confirmed my interest and success in a sales career.
    I understand A&D is dedicated to turning challenges into opportunities
    and change into growth. This growth has resulted in a reputation for high
    quality and strong customer relationships. This is the type of organization
    where I am confident my skills and knowledge would be best suited.
    Some of my skills and knowledge include:

    Proven sales experience


    Ability to work effectively as part of a team

    Experience in the agricultural industry

    Interpersonal communication skills

    Strong public speaking skills

    Although my resume provides a summary of my background and


    experiences, I would like to meet with you in person to discuss any

    Excellent explanation
    of experience relevant
    to the company and
    position sought.

    Company research
    helps this applicant tie
    her own skills to the

    Dear Ms. Rider:
    The World Review Newspaper is currently running your ad for a Junior
    Accountant to service a small accounting department within Gottschalks.
    You will find my background and experience directly applicable to your
    accounting needs and I have enclosed my resume for your review.

    No-nonsense style that


    quickly takes reader to
    the heart of the matter.

    Over the years, I have developed and completed three (3) internships in
    accounting departments in Northern and Southern California. In the last
    internship, I developed an efficient accounting information system for a
    small manufacturer. In order to develop this system, I performed a cost
    analysis and constructed a budget using an IBM Mainframe and
    Macintosh Personal Computer. In my first internship, I performed all
    aspects of a major audit under extremely short deadlines. Basic
    accounting principles come easy to me and I am extremely accurate in
    all my transactions.

    Excellent presentation
    of work-related
    experience. No mention
    of communication skills,
    however. Employers
    consistently list
    communication skills as
    their highest need.

    Please contact me at the address and phone number below. I look


    forward to hearing from you. I am geographically mobile and am willing
    to begin employment immediately.
    Thank you for your consideration.

    Jay Jones
    Area Manager
    Heublein, Inc.
    816 Atlantic Avenue, Suite 10
    Alameda, CA. 94501
    Dear Mr. Jones:
    I have been encouraged by Jack Quick, Placement Officer at California
    State University, Chico, to contact you concerning your opening for a
    Sales Representative. After reviewing your company brochure, I am
    confident that I can be an asset to your company and would appreciate
    your reviewing the enclosed resume that depicts my sales characteristics
    and skills.
    Accepting challenges is the foundation of my life experiences and
    something I do with confidence. You will find me a totally committed
    individual with pride in being direct, spontaneous and communicative. I
    can maintain records, perform numerical calculations with accuracy and I
    need little direction to complete assigned tasks. These are the qualities
    that make an excellent Sales Representative.
    From past experiences and education, I have acquired persuasive
    techniques that are needed to influence students, parents and customers
    in making choices. My leadership skills are developed and have allowed
    me to spontaneously interact with ethnic diverse populations and all age
    groups. I am a motivator and organizer and these skills have enabled
    me to effectively defuse problem situations with customers using tact,
    thus creating a long-term client base. Teamwork is another skill I have
    acquired and one I know is necessary for organizational cohesiveness.
    Over the years, I have had to establish daily operational bases for
    projects/programs and provide the direction to insure the progress and
    deadline were met.
    I will appreciate the opportunity to meet and further discuss my
    qualifications and your sales position. I will be contacting your office to
    follow up on this letter around the first week in August. Looking for

    Name dropping can be


    a very effective way of
    getting attention to your
    job application. The
    person whose name
    you drop doesn't have
    to work for the company
    as long as the reader
    likes and respects the
    person.
    Really great discussion
    of sales-related skills!
    Nice proactive
    approach to gaining an
    interview, but be sure
    you follow up when you
    say you will. The ability
    to follow through is one
    of the most important
    characteristics of a
    successful sales
    person.

    forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance for your


    consideration.

    201 Monroe Drive
    Arlington, TX 76028
    Dear Mr. Johnson:
    Are there any openings at KXYZ for an enthusiastic, young,
    announcer/programmer? Jane Majors, Director of Programming, recently
    discussed with me several experimental formats being planned at KXYZ,
    particularly in the areas of singularly directed programming. This
    scheduling concept is an exciting development with dramatic potential.

    Great use of this format,


    especially since it is
    combined with effective
    name dropping.

    This programming format requires that individuals possess a strong radio


    and television background. As a graduating senior in the
    Telecommunications Department, my experience includes both radio and
    television production and on-air programming. I have experience as an
    announcer, programmer, disc jockey, sportscaster, news reporter and
    news writer at KITU-FM and KTIS-AM. In addition, I hold an FCC thirdclass license with broadcast endorsement. My sense of responsibility
    and conscientiousness are indicated by my honors.

    Effective discussion of
    skills and experience.

    My enclosed resume reflects my experiences and accomplishments. I


    am enthusiastic about your single-focus programming concept. The
    opportunity to help implement this innovative idea would be an exciting
    challenge for me. I will contact you during the week of October 12-16 to
    arrange a mutually convenient time for us to meet and discuss
    employment possibilities. Thank you for your consideration.
    Sincerely,

    Upbeat, enthusiastic
    style works well and it
    guaranteed an
    interview.

    above average and I have had the opportunity to interact with very diverse
    populations and individuals of all ages. I can interview with business
    clients to gather facts and put these facts into written materials; interpret
    rules, regulations and policies; plus function positively as part of a team.
    You can trust me to work unsupervised, meet deadlines, and develop
    creative ideas that will make a difference in services rendered to the
