Your company has an impressive track record for mentoring entry-level\naccountants plus offering valuable experience in auditing, tax compliance and cost accounting. As\na Rowan University senior, anticipating graduation in May, I am anxious to interview with you\nduring your upcoming recruitment trip to our campus.\nMy strong academic performance and outstanding internship experience make me a strong\ncandidate for a junior accountant position with Coopers and Lybrand. As an honor student and\nrecipient of the Medallion Scholar Award for the internationally accredited College of Business, I\nwas chosen to intern for the local public accounting firm of Money and Associates CPA. At Money\nand Associates, I assisted with the preparation of clients for corporate tax audits and performed\nintake consultations for tax preparation purposes. My supervising accountant, Mr. Charles Money\ninvited me to continue my internship for a second semester. On my internship evaluation form he\nwrote, "John\'s knowledge and ability to grasp accounting procedures and principles is quite\nimpressive. His computer skills and team-working abilities make him a valuable resource. I believe\nJohn will develop into a top-notch accountant."\nEnclosed is a copy of my resume, which outlines my qualifications in further detail. I look forward\nto an opportunity to meet with you during the upcoming recruitment week at Rowan University. I\ncan be reached at 856-863-9547. Thank you for your time and consideration.\n\nRespectfully,\n\nMr. Dwight Thompson\nHuman Resources Manager\nSavitz Pharmaceuticals\n856 Bozorth Parkway\nEsby, NJ 08028\nDear Mr. Thompson:\nIn response to your advertisement in the Glassboro Examiner for a sales representative for Savitz\nPharmaceuticals, I hereby submit my letter of application. I was excited to read your ad since I\nhave had a long-time interest in pharmaceutical sales and your products sound particularly\nappealing to me.\nAs a college student, I had the opportunity to experience in sales and customer service. Of\nparticular interest to you, I worked at Glassboro Medical Supply serving customers who enter our\nstore. Through reading professional periodicals and magazines that are sent to me as an\nemployee of Glassboro Medical Supply, I have become knowledgeable of the different types of\nmedical supplies. This knowledge enables me to fully address our customers\xe2\x80\x99 medical supply\nneeds and answer their questions. Utilizing my proactive approach to sales and customer service,\nI increased sales this year by 20% over last year\xe2\x80\x99s figures. In light of my accomplishment, my\nsupervisor has given me the responsibility of developing a plan to market medical supplies to local\ndrug stores. In addition to my work experience, I recently completed a course in\ndrug/pharmacology terminology at the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. Completion of\nthis course increased my knowledge of medicines and their effects.\nI have always had a strong interest in the medical/pharmaceutical sales field and have attempted\nto gain the knowledge and experience needed to work effectively in that capacity. With that in\nmind, I feel I am highly qualified for the position of sales representative for Savitz Pharmaceuticals.\nMy enclosed resume outlines my qualifications in further detail. I welcome an opportunity to meet\nwith you at your convenience. I can be reached at 856-256-4322 or on my cell phone at 856- 2222348.\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nJohn Q.
