To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to express my interest in a Content Management or UX Writer position with your
company. I am a marketing communications specialist with 4 years of experience in content
management, communications strategy, and copywriting.
I currently work at the Stanford Graduate School of Business where I strategically manage all of
our organization’s most important content. I am “the voice” for our organization, telling the story
of our accomplishments, our impact, and our programs. I produce presentations, draft internal
and external facing communications, develop our annual strategy and budget report, and create
marketing collateral. I am also responsible for our web presence, managing our content from
development to execution.
I have a passion for connecting with audiences through compelling content. My speciality is
translating complex subject matter into engaging, easily digestible content.
I am interested in working for your company because I want to:
● gain experience developing content for a technical company
● further develop my skills as a writer in a for profit user centric environment
● develop compelling online content that connects with users across the world
The factors that differentiate me as an applicant are:
● the need to understand and connect with my audience
● a fearless approach to writing and developing content
● the ability to lead projects and get results in a collaborative and mission focused manner
● the ability to see my projects in the bigger picture of the organization’s mission and goals
● impact driven mentality that drives me to seek results
● user focused and service oriented approach to work
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to talking with you further about my
candidacy.
Regards,
Leticia
