To Whom it may Concern:

First, thank you for considering me as a potential part of your team.

I am looking for a full time position in an environment where there are opportunities for advancement. I have reliable transportation, great customer service, and technological, and anialytical skills. I have also grown to have a very strong work ethic. Also, as I’ve matured, and endured being an entrepreneur for 10+ years, I appreciate the thought of having a steady means of income without working myself to an early grave. I have great skills with people and computers/electronics, mostly because I have a strong Sales and Information Technology background.

I do believe that this position can help me to rapidly reach my goals, and I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to interview for a position with your establishment. In order to accomplish my goals my salary will have to be sufficient or my plans will fail as proven in the past. Therefore, I would be most grateful if I was to earn $1250.00 per week. I will do the job to my utmost capacity at all times. I am confident in my abilities and I have a strong desire to learn and grow. Thanks again for your consideration. Sincerely,

Ryan Alexander Paige
