  Cynthia Miles

  Director of Human Resources European Enterprises, Inc.

  620 Eighth Avenue

  New York, NY 10018

  Dear Ms. Miles:

  I am a recent graduate from Boston University with a degree in International Relations. A number of real-world professional opportunities in the United States, the Middle East, and Europe have augmented my educational experiences. The combination has provided me with a realistic view of the demands and challenges faced in a global business economy.

  I would welcome the chance to discuss opportunities with your firm. My leadership ability coupled with financial, management, and sales experience can be of real value to your company. I am equally comfortable working independently to meet company goals as well as collaboratively as part of a team. I have always been able to establish and maintain excellent relationships with clients and colleagues at all levels. My professional skills include:

  ?Financial and management consulting experience as an Intern with Sprint-Walker in London, England.

  ?Business development management with full P&L responsibility for a residential painting contractor.

  ?Group leadership responsibilities managing an overseas summer tour for students to the Middle East.

  ?Self-confidence to adapt to complex situations and solve problems gained through exposure to a diverse set of circumstances, languages, and cultures.

  Please consider me a serious candidate for an international position with European Enterprises. I look forward to a personal meeting so that I can provide you with additional information to supplement what appears on my enclosed resume. Thank you.

  Sincerely,

  Jacob S. Williams
