E-MAIL LETTER 5-79: NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR
From: Rita Pestana
To: Allen Argus, IT Director
Sent: November 2, 20XX
Attachment: Rita Pestana.doc
Subject: Network Administrator Position

What a thrill it would be to bring my experience, knowledge, and
energy to your firm. I have attached my resume in Word to
illustrate that I possess the qualifications you seek. As you’ll see, I
have served as a UNIX Systems Administrator for large,
multinational firms in a variety of industries. This diverse
experience enables me to evaluate, support, and troubleshoot
client/server configurations across vast heterogeneous networks
and to think “outside the box,” identifying solutions others might
miss.

Should we have the opportunity to meet, you’ll discover what my
resume cannot reveal -- that I am a professional who can work
both independently and in a team environment. That I interact
effectively with disparate business units, project management and
quality control teams. That I enjoy mentoring fellow team members.
That I excel in an environment replete with rapid change, frequent
challenges, and mind-boggling deadlines...
...and that I would be thrilled to be part of your IT team.
Sincerely,

Rita Pestana
