LETTER 5-1: MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS SUPERVISOR—SALARY
Mr. James Milton, Vice President, Sales
Ms. Marie Bruno, Advertising Director
Fashion Clearinghouse
44 West 44 Street
New York, NY 10000

Dear Mr. Milton and Ms. Bruno:
I am applying for the position of Marketing Communications
Supervisor because your ad said these three things to me:
Your thoughtful, classy layout -- setting it apart from all the
other ads on December’s FashionWeek Help Wanted page --
”beat the clutter,” the dream of all retailers.

Your description of the ideal candidate reflects my skills, my
strengths, my experience.

You are a substantive company offering a product of superior
quality.

My resume, which is enclosed, speaks of my experience and
expertise in retailing, and most recently in the marketing of
personal computers. I am assertive, diligent, driven, and Sells
hardworking. I am a seeker of end results -- and I achieve them, as personal
the enclosed overview of my accomplishments proves. I thrive and strengths
deliver in a demanding, and fast-paced environment. I am willing
to tackle and accomplish any project. My management style is
open, humorous, example-driven, and loyal.
I believe that we can be successful partners. I want the chance to
meet with you and would consider an interview a most wonderful
opportunity. I’ll make myself available at your convenience so that
we may discuss salary in detail, and I can provide references.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Aldo Clement
