Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my interest in a position. I have recently graduated with a Master’s of Science degree in
Organizational Behavior Management at Florida Institute of Technology. My primary interests are to find the
best opportunity to refine my skills and begin a relationship with a great company.
I believe that your organization has the ideal culture in which to achieve my goal of becoming a strategic and
diverse organizational leader. I am excited to work with a diverse team. I believe that this organization will
provide the experience necessary to challenge my problem solving and critical thinking skills. Additionally, I
believe I can continue to add to the diversity of your company’s staff.
My education at Florida Tech has prepared me to be successful at leading process improvement projects,
developing process maps, identifying disconnects, identifying and developing measures of importance to
clients, and developing materials necessary for managing process and performance changes using principles of
Applied Behavioral Analysis. I was a member of an Organizational Behavior Management group that has taken
on various process improvement projects at a local autism treatment center in Melbourne, Florida. Furthermore,
I have experience in developing cross-cultural workshop programs to improve cross-cultural competence,
conducting job analysis, training, and interviewing potential new hires.
I firmly believe that I will be an active member in the company’s collaborative, energetic, and intellectual
culture. I am eager to help customers address their concerns and excited at the prospect of working for your
organization. I would welcome any opportunity to discuss all available positions with you in person or via email
(******.*.*@*****.***). Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Devona Malone
