Dear Meghan Brattin,
I am currently a junior at Iowa. I am a communications major and strongly interested in marketing and advertising. I saw the
Campus U description online and thought this would be a perfect opportunity for me and I would really be interested in helping
you guys out on you projects. I have seen some of the ads around campus and think I could help the team. I have several
skills that would qualify me for the position such as:
• Strong Communication skills: Both oral and written
• Interested in Marketing and Advertising
• Very creative yet also logical
I align closely with your focus on creative, results driven marketing campaigns. I believe that I would be a great addition to
your company and look forward to being hearing back from you at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your time and
consideration.
Sincerely,
Tanner Sortillo
