Manager, Executive Recruitment
Marshall's

Dallas, TX 75202

Dear Ms. Stephenson:
  I would like to interview with Marshall's during your February 21 recruiting visit to the University of Pittsburgh. I am particularly interested in a career with your organization because of your excellent reputation as having one of the ten best executive training programs in your industry. As a candidate, I can offer your company strong interpersonal skills, organizational ability and retail sales experience.
  As a sales executive at Lantrip's, I developed effective selling techniques, resulting in consistently exceeding my store's quotas. Through extensive contact with customers, assisting in merchandising and performance of daily store operations, I gained valuable experience.
  My internship at WKPA Radio and my work-study position at the University of Pittsburgh have provided me with an opportunity to develop oral and written communication skills, as well as experience in researching and analyzing data. I am confident that these skills have provided me with the background for a successful and productive career at Marshall's.
  I have enclosed a resume for your review. I am very interested in further discussing my qualifications with you. I will contact your office on February 14 to arrange a mutually convenient time for a meeting. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Anja Singh
