Dear Mr. Lenny:

Your classified advertisement in the Tribune was of interest to me. The
knowledge and experience I gained through 20 years of experience at
Eastern Telecom closely matches your requirements.

As my resume shows, I have had progressively more responsibility in the
field of human resources. I concentrate in, but am not limited to, the areas
of compensation, manpower planning, and benefits.

During my experience I have exhibited excellent interpersonal skills,
developed strong computer knowledge, been a solid team player, and utilized
both verbal and written communications skills to all levels of employees and
management.

I look forward to having the opportunity to talk further with you in the
near future.

Best wishes,

Linda Powell
