Dear Hiring Manager,
I would like to express my interest for the position you have available as a Brand Manager at your firm. As a recent graduate I have proficient writing, editing, and communications experience. I believe I am very responsible, efficient, and productive which makes me a strong candidate for this position. I also have fresh, bright, and creative ideas which I would like to implement as a member of your work force.
I am a fast learner and able to work independently. I am also a highly skilled writer and an excellent editor. I am also very confident in front of a camera. I have practiced for live news telecast in my broadcast media classes. At my internship and in college I did a lot of research and writing on advertising and marketing. I also implemented several advertising techniques during the course of my internship. My boss was so impressed by my hard work and dedication that he offered me a job when my internship period was over. My marketing internship lasted about 6 months and my marketing job was 1 yearlong at a highly credited medical lab. I also have experience in publications writing and technical writing. I am also multilingual. As an immigrant, I know a lot about different cultures. My communication skills are so unique and advanced that they can cross cultural barriers and reach out and inform people. Although I am a recent college graduate, my maturity, practical experience, and eagerness to learn will provide you great contentment. I would love to begin my career at your medical firm, and I am confident that I would be a beneficial asset to your company. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
