To whom it may concern,
I am a student at Western University who is very interested in working in an entry level
public relations position. I have experience working in sales and love working with people in a
fast-paced environment. I have been a member of Western University’s varsity cross country and
track and field teams for four years, which has taught me how to be self-motivated and how to
create goals for myself and work toward them.
I appreciate the importance you place on an internal drive for excellence and being goal-
oriented, as I agree that a strong work ethic cannot come from external motivators, but has to
come from within the individual.
I am very excited for this opportunity. I have enclosed my resume and wish to request an
interview. I may be contacted by phone or email at any time. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Brittany Hambleton
