Dear Mr. Johnson:

 

The accompanying resume is in response to your listing in the Calgary Herald for a security officer.

 

I am especially interested in this position because my experience as a senior security professional in the financial district has prepared me for a disciplined, secure work environment and the challenges associated with unexpected events. I'm looking forward to using this experience for enhancing the security of a growing and community-conscious bank.

 

I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my experience will best meet your needs. My ideas on how to improve your bank's security posture may be of particular interest to you. Therefore, I will call your office on the morning of March 17 to inquire if a meeting can be scheduled at a convenient time.

 

I look forward to meeting you.

 

Sincerely yours,

Dear Mr. Peterson:

 

At the suggestion of my colleague, Mathilde Khan, a Flyways Services airline pilot based in Edmonton, I am writing to inquire about a flight crew or pilot position with your company. I offer 3 years of professional flight experience with 2,000 total flight hours logged. Competent and knowledgeable in the field of aviation, I have an impeccable flight and safety record. My resume is enclosed for your review.

 

Most recently, at United Airways, I served as captain on the BN 2A and first officer on the DC 3. In this capacity, I received frequent commendations from the passengers for conducting smooth flights. I effectively handled difficult and dangerous situations while maintaining the highest emphasis on safety. Previously, as first officer at Air Canada, I gained expertise in Cockpit Resource Management. My background includes Flight Instructor experience - I taught 40 Students and assisted more than 10 students in obtaining their licenses.

 

I am presently seeking to join a company that offers opportunities for growth and advancement. I have followed your company for the last few years and have been impressed by your dedication to service and excellence. Northern Flyways Services is a leader in delivery service with a global reach - I would be proud to be a part of Flyways Services' continued success. I bring to Flyways Services strong leadership competencies, solid judgement, troubleshooting, and decision-making abilities. I am also young, energetic, and committed to achieving corporate goals.

 

If you are interested in a self-motivated and highly competent candidate, we should speak. I am willing to relocate, and am available for an interview at your convenience. I appreciate your time, and look forward to speaking to you.

 

Sincerely yours,
