Cleveland, OH 66546

Dear Mr. Jennings:

Your company is well-known throughout the insurance industry. I’ve also been
aware of your advertisements in various publications over the years. As the
enclosed resume outlines, I have had more than thirty years of progressive
responsibility in the insurance industry.

Recently, I reviewed Empire Insurance’s entire divisional operation and
implemented initiatives that reduced expenses by more than $400,000. This was
done without any interruption to client service. I feel that I could also positively
contribute to the bottom line of Action Insurance by bringing my skills and
years of experience to your company.

I would like the opportunity to personally discuss any positions you may
currently have open that would be a good match with my background. I’ll call
you next week to arrange a time to meet.

Sincerely,

Jane Alexander
