Mr.Richard Levy
First Security Bank

San Diego, Ca 91201
Dear Mr.Levy,
Is there a place at First Security for a person with a thorough busine education, experience in the busine world, and an earnest desire to accept responsibility and handle challenges? If so, I believe that I can meet your need.
On December 20, 1988, I received a BBA degree from Brigham Young University besides courses in accounting, management, and marketing.I have taken speech, industrial psychology, and busine communications to better prepare myself to work effectively with people.
As an employee at Sears, Roebuck in Provo, Utah, I have performed various duties from receiving clerk to cashier to candidate for management trainee.I believe that my supervisor there (see the enclosed resume) will tell you that I was a dependable, conscientious worker.My part time work of approximately 25 hours a week enabled me to pay the major part of my college expenses.
In addition to education and experience, Mr.Levy, my college activities have prepared me to work well with people.As senior vice president in charge of recruiting for my profeional fraternity, I organized a number of educational and social meetings for prospective members.During the time I served as chairman of recruiting, we pledged more men and women than we had for the previous three years.Besides the qualifications mentioned, I would bring to your bank a desire to succeed and a willingne to work hard.Please look over the enclosed resume, which provides more details about my background.If you think I could serve First Security in an entry level
position, please call me.I will arrange to come in for an interview at your convenience.
Yours very truly,

HR Representative
Finance, Inc.
Cincinnati, OH 45201
Dear Ms.Brown,
Finance, Inc.was listed on Cleveland University’s career webpage for summer internships.I believe that Finance, Inc’s summer internship is an ideal opportunity for students.
As a junior at Cleveland University, I am learning about the technical side of accounting through a rigorous accounting course load.In addition, I am learning to be a team player and to communicate effectively with people from diverse backgrounds.For example, in my marketing cla, I did a group presentation on Starbucks.We had one week to evaluate Starbucks financial position, future opportunities, and recommend a strategy for Starbucks to compete well against Caribou Coffee.Working with group members that have conflicting opinions was quite challenging, exciting, and ultimately rewarding for me.Likewise, projects that I have completed at Creative Solutions Inc., and the Cleveland Municipal Water District further enhanced my accounting skills as well as offered insights into different aspects of the busine world.My responsibilities included bookkeeping for thousands of dollars.At Finance, Inc., I would also like to make a contribution by using my outstanding analytical skills and be challenged to work to my potential by working with diverse clientele.In addition, I look forward to understanding more about Finance, Inc’s role in busine.
I respect Finance, Inc\'s excellence in quality and support and believe that I can meet these standards as a summer intern.I want to be challenged and learn firsthand about busine.I am looking forward to further discuing the challenges and rewards of working for Finance, Inc.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Isabelle Bright
