General Manager

Any Corporation

Chicago, IL 60605

Dear Mr. Cummings:

My interest in the position of Masonry Supply Manager (New York Post, November 30) has

prompted me to forward my resume for your review and consideration.

During the past ten years, my experience has been concentrated in the masonry and plastering

products supply industry with a building materials firm. During my six years as General

Manager, I took an old line business, which had undergone several years of poor management,

and reversed the trend. I upgraded the firm's image, and customer and vendor relations, which

subsequently increased the dollar volume and bottom line profits by 300%.

I am presently looking for a position where my experience will make a positive contribution to

the start-up or continuing profitable operation of a business in which I am so well experienced.

I will contact you in a few days to arrange a meeting for further discussion. In the interim,

should you require additional information, I may be reached at (203) 222-2222 between

9 A.M. and 5 P.M.

Sincerely,

Joan Smith

Pat Cummings

Human Resources Director

Any Bank

1140 Main Street

Chicago, IL 60605

Dear Mr. Cummings:

Having majored in mathematics at Rice University, where I also worked as a Research Assistant,

I am confident that I would make a successful addition to your Economics Research Department.

In addition to my strong background in mathematics, I offer significant business experience,

having worked in a data processing firm, a bookstore and a restaurant. I am sure that my courses

in statistics and computer programming would prove particularly useful in an entry-level

position.

I am attracted to Any Bank by your recent rapid growth and the superior reputation of your

Economic Research Department. After studying different commercial banks, I have concluded

that Any Bank will be in a strong competitive position to benefit from upcoming changes in the

industry, such as the phasing out of Regulation X.

I would like to interview with you at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,

Joan Smith
