Ms. Diane C. Strand
Manager of Human Resources
Atlantic Coast Industries, Inc.
123 Main Street
New York, NY 10003

Dear Ms. Strand:

I am applying for the position of Systems Analyst, which was advertised in the May 28th edition of the New York Times. The position seems to fit very well with my education, experience and career interests.

The position requires experience in computer systems. As a major in computer science, I have completed courses in programming and computer architecture. My co-op experience as a programmer at XYZ Company gave me valuable exposure to complex computer operations. In addition, I worked for two summers in computing operations at First American Bank. There I learned the details of financial systems.

My background and career goals seem to match your job requirements, and I am confident that I can perform the job effectively. Furthermore, I am genuinely interested in working for Atlantic Coast Industries.

Enclosed please find my resume which will provide you with more details about my qualifications. I will contact you next week to discuss them. Should you need to reach me, please feel free to call me at (718) 222-3333. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

(Your signature)

Janet Polytech
