Dear Ms. Matthews:
I learned through the SMU Career Center that you plan to visit our campus this fall to interview candidates for jobs in your international division, and I want to make you aware of my sincere interest in one of these positions.
As a French major, I speak the language fluently. I am also proficient in Russian and Italian. My minor is in international business, so I am well-versed in global trade and competition. I am widely traveled in Europe and Asia.
I know you will need competent managers with international flair to open your overseas plants. My language and interpersonal skills perfectly match your needs in these new areas.
I look forward to being pre-selected for an interview with you, at which time I would like to acquaint you with what I have to offer and share some ideas for your global expansion. Should you wish to contact me in the meantime, I may be reached at 214-521-7777.
Sincerely,
Shawna Banks
