Dear Ms. Badu,

 

It is with great pleasure that I submit my application for the position advertised in the Daily Herald on February 10th. Please find enclosed my resume. I am confident that you will find my qualifications and experience more than meet your needs.

As you can see from my resume, I have a master's degree in graphic design. For the last three years, I have been working as a design team manager for Griffy's Graphics. While I have enjoyed this position and have learned a lot about how to coordinate a group of individuals in order to bring them together as a team, I am eager to start the next stage of my career.

I am a confident, well-organized person with excellent communication skills. I have been giving presentations in front of large groups since my university days, when I was an active member of the university debating society. I enjoy the pressure of working towards a deadline and am never late with my work.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can provide any further information.

 

Sincerely,

Jessica Simpson
