Dear
Julie
It
seems like years since we were in Ms. Gerhig’s keyboarding class. Now I wish I would have
paid
more attention. As I indicated on the
phone, I am applying for a position as box office
coordinator
for one of the theaters on Broadway. Of
course, I know the importance of having my
letter
of application and resume formatted correctly, but I’m not sure that I remember
how to do it.
Since
you just completed your business education degree, I knew where to get the help
I needed.
Thanks
for agreeing to look over my application documents; they are enclosed. Also, if you have
any
suggestions for changes to the content, please share those with me too. This job is so
important
to me; it’s the one I really want.
Thanks
again for agreeing to help. If I get the
job, I’ll take you out to one of New York’s finest
restaurants.
Sincerely
Rebecca
