Student cover letter- sample student cover letters

Dear Mr. Smith,       I want to thank you for taking the time to interview me yesterday for the position of assistant director of the National Museum. You, Mr. Dave Manning, and Dr. Kuwang exuded warmth, and I know we could all have an excellent working relationship.       As I further studied the job description for the position, I grew even more confident that I could take the museum to new heights of success. With the resources I've gathered, I am ready to hit the ground running with grant-writing. The 15% bonus for grants brought in is an excellent incentive, and I would devote a significant portion of my time to this important venture. I also have a number of great ideas for community and media relations and am excited by your interest in bringing more schoolchildren to the museum.       As I mentioned when we met, I would like to use my fine arts degree and journalism minor to enhance the museum's identity while at the same time meeting the needs and expectations of the community. I believe I can make a significant contribution to the fundraising effort, and I am particularly interested in exploring a corporate donor program.       I am convinced I could bring a new degree of organization to the museum, including sinking my teeth into making the workspace far less chaotic and far more functional. More importantly, I'd like to get communications on track so that newsletters and invitations are sent out on a timely basis. I have some ideas for making the newsletter more user-friendly. I feel it is extremely important to maintain close communication between the board and director, and I am committed to doing so.       Mr. Smith, I thank you again for considering me for this position. I look forward to the possibility of working with you. Sincerely, Richard Anderson,
Senior Student,

Airline complaint letter

Dear Mr. Arnold, This is a gentle effort to bring to your notice one of the most surprising returns of hospitality. You are counted as one of the best and luxurious airline services in India, claiming yourself to choose your staffs personally so that they can take care of your passengers as own guests. Being one of the regular flyers of Fish King, it was beyond my anticipation to receive such misbehavior from your airport staff. I will not like to take her name specifically, but will surely look forward to a genuine reply from your side. Thanks and regards, John

guarantee that the water that we obtain from mineral springs
and sell all over the state of [state] is pure and safe. We have enclosed a self-addressed card, which entitles

Decline to interview referred job applicant

Dear Having been away from the office for a few days, I didn't read your letter of May 19th until today. While I am sure the young man you wrote to me about wouldn't warrant the recommendation you gave unless he is truly exceptional, I believe it would be unfair to him to set up an interview at this time. We have just had to lay off twenty four employees and there is no way that I could justify hiring someone new under those circumstances. We anticipate that business should improve over the next six months, but for now, the timing is off. I am sorry to have to disappoint you. You know, under the right circumstances, we are always looking for bright young people with potential. Thank you for thinking of us.

Cover letter - entry level marketing

I am very interested in this position with ABC Marketing Group, and believe that my education and employment background are appropriate for the position. During my tenure at XYZ College, I have noticed my growing interest in marketing and public relations. Last summer, I interned at the national Sculpture Society in New York City. My position entailed me to develop web pages and slideshows publicizing the success of the society's artists. I was able to utilize my web authoring skills to assist the organization in their goal to promote sculpture. As an assistant at career services, I am responsible for updating information on alumni, career advisors and companies who publicize internships with our office. This involves heavy calling during my shifts at the office. In addition to calling, I also email clientele. This calls for me to employ interpersonal skills to communicate with clients effectively. The office also gives me the responsibility of publicizing events via Facebook. In my current position as Apple Campus Representative for XYZ College, my primary goal is to promote and educate current and potential patrons. I do various promotion campaigns such as putting posters up, maintaining a webpage and Facebook page. I hold weekly workshops and or demo tables, promoting Apple and assisting patrons on a face-to-face basis. I believe that my experiences in marketing and interpersonal skills make me a prime candidate for this position. I am a diligent worker, and passionate about my work. I will be valuable asset to your company and use this as a opportunity to grow and further the development of my marketing skill set. Thank you very much for considering my application for candidacy. I will follow up within a week to confirm that all of my materials were received and hopefully set up an interview time. Best Regards,
