Dear Human Resource or management team member:
My name is Debra Giles and I am very excited about seeking an opportunity and for my relocation back home. I also gladly welcome an opportunity to meet with you to discuss a position with Aurora Health. I will be traveling to Milwaukee in a couple of weeks to seek permanent residency, and would be available to meet at that time, or perhaps communicate by phone to set up an interview at your convenience.
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Debra Giles
