Dear Ms. Trivitts,

　　I will be moving to Capitol City upon receiving my bachelor's degree in business administration from Duke University this June. A friend of mine, Polly Norton, advised me to contact you. She met you at the last meeting of the Women's Network and said your company was expanding and in need of a marketing manager. I have extensive experience in marketing for service-oriented companies, as you can see from my attached resume. I understand you need people who are both accurate and committed to achieving company goals. I enjoy detailed tasks and strive to excel in my work.

　　I know Able Insurance is a leading player in regional insurance. I excelled in my coursework in insurance matters at Duke, and my thesis project centered on the insurance industry. I want to work for your company because of its good reputation in the community and its ability to offer excellent training and mobility. I hope to hear from you soon. You may contact me by calling (000) 555-1058.

　　Sincerely yours,

　　Elaine Jennifer McDowell
