1 0123 Green Street Los Angeles, CA College of Applied Science and Technology Environmental Sustainability, Health and Safety /Full-time July 30, 20xx Pat Cummings Director Any Bureau 0123 Main Street Oakland, CA Dear Mr. Cummings: Recently I learned of your company through RIT s Office of Co-op & Career Services and I visited your web site to learn more about your business and products. I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Environmental Sustainability, Health and Safety and am seeking a position in Energy Efficiency with Any Bureau. In May, I graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology with my B.S. in Environmental Sustainability, Health and Safety. In 20xx, I was recognized for outstanding achievement in the environmental sciences when I was on Dean s List all four years. As a member of the Student Environmental Action League, I spearheaded an Electronic Waste Collection on campus. Through my co-op with the California State Soil Conservation Service, I was able to apply what I had learned in my studies, including environmental science, environmental laws, regulations and the appropriate technologies for protecting air, water and land resources. In this position, I was exposed to all aspects of applied soil science. I provided technical assistance primarily to farmers and ranchers to promote the conservation of soil, water, and related natural resources. Equally important, I helped to develop programs to combat soil erosion and maximize land productivity without damaging the environment. With my education, experience, and passion for the environment, I am confident I would significantly contribute to your Energy Efficiency program. If you feel that I am suited for a position with Any Bureau, I would greatly appreciate an interview. I will contact you in two weeks to follow up. Thank you for your consideration. Chris Smith Enc.

2 Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences Software Engineering /Full-time William Stevens 0123 Ascot Lane Blacksburg, NY December 22, 2xx Mr. Robert Burns Vice President, Template Division MEGATEK Corporation 0123 Technical Way Bigtown, NY Dear Mr. Burns: Recently I learned of your company through RIT s Office of Co-op and Career Services and I visited your web site to learn more about your business. In May 20xx, I will be graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in Software Engineering and would be particularly interested in a software engineering position with MEGATEK. As my attached resume indicates, I have six years of experience in software design and applications development and hold a B.S in Software Engineering from Rochester Institute of Technology. As a co-op student, I was one of six members on a software design program for NASA. My responsibilities included designing, coding, and testing a graphical portion of the program which required the use of GIARO for graphics input and output. I am most proud of my senior project, in which I led our team to develop the Medical Imaging Clinical Workflow System. We designed and distributed software architecture for analyzing medical imaging studies that the sponsoring company was able to build upon to further develop the system. I have a strong background in computer aided design, software development, and engineering, and believe that these skills would benefit the designing and manufacturing aspects of Template software. I am very interested in working for MEGATEK, and would appreciate an opportunity to discuss possible position(s) with you. I will call you in a week to answer any questions you may have and to see if you would like to schedule an interview. Thank you for your consideration. William Stevens Enclosure

I was very intrigued by the projects of CarMakers Corporation, and as I will be graduating in the spring, I would be interested to see if you had any positions open, particularly in the field of Mechanical Engineering. In addition to earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, I have completed coursework in design and systems engineering, and have been involved in the Formula SAE club, which builds a racecar from the ground up, purchasing only the engine block, tires, and bulk materials. I helped in the design and assembling process, and our team placed first at several competitions. I approach all of my projects and work with discipline and organization. As a Mechanical Engineer with CarMakers, I would strive to effectively contribute to your departmental goals and objectives. As an alumnus of Rochester Institute of Technology and a native of the State of Washington, I am well acquainted with the overall family/business environment in which I would be working. I will be in Washington on Friday, August 5. If possible, I would like to arrange to meet with you at this time in order to convince you of my ability to join your company. I will call your office on July 30 to schedule a meeting. Thank you very much for your consideration. I am excited about the opportunity to work at CarMakers Corporation and believe that my education, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn new things will make me an effective member of your team.

Smythe Unit Director Department of Transportation State of Delaware Dover, DE Dear Mr. Smythe: Donald Hurley suggested it could prove valuable for us to talk. I am presently seeking an internship opportunity where I can apply my civil engineering skills as part of a cooperative education experience. After researching the Department of Transportation, I thought I would inquire as to whether you have any opportunities in the field of Civil Engineering. I have broad expertise in all aspects of civil engineering and a proven ability to effectively manage a successful project. My background in heavy construction is complemented by my coursework in Civil Engineering Technology from Rochester Institute of Technology. In my last co-op with Ostrow Electric, I interpreted construction blueprints and specifications, assisted in the preparation of cost estimates for projects, assisted with field layout, and led a team responsible for CAD preparation. My managers describe me as a self-motivated, ambitious, and hardworking team player with a strong sense of working collaboratively. My track record of performance in all areas reflects my ability to learn quickly and completely, and I always give 110% to any job I undertake. I have a reputation for doing whatever it takes to give exceptional quality and value. I am able to work effectively with individuals at all levels- from superintendents and general contractors, project owners, and municipal leaders to laborers and tradesmen in the field. In addition to these strengths, I have key skills in the area of structural analysis, construction layout, and possess expert project management skills. I am known for my ability to effectively troubleshoot and successfully resolve any situation. I look forward to meeting with you to discuss the DOT's hiring needs and how I might contribute to your operations. I will contact you next week to set an appointment. Everett C. Daniels

6 Cecelia Anderson 0123 Green Street Holland, MI College of Liberal Arts International Global Studies / Full-time September 30, 20xx Deborah Jenkins Language Coordinator Any Institute 0123 Main Street Detroit, MI Dear Ms. Jenkins: Learning different languages connects us to each other, building bridges and opening doors between nations. I discovered Any Institute while searching for universities with language programs, and the Any Institute Program intrigued me because of its intensity, high standards of educational quality, and commitment to immersion language learning. I feel I am particularly qualified for this job as a result of my International and Global Studies B.S. from Rochester Institute of Technology as well as my current enrollment in two language proficiency certificate programs. As someone who deeply believes in the importance of language enrichment, I would love the chance to work for an organization that reflects both my interests and my personal commitment. Having grown up in a bilingual (Spanish/English-speaking) environment and having studied abroad in both Spain and Mexico, I am well aware of the demands and technical challenges involved in teaching and learning new languages. Language is forever evolving and new expression and technology breed new linguistic mutations daily. To meet these challenges and maintain both my teaching and my own language skills, I take weekly language classes and regularly tutor children in the fundamentals. In addition, through my experience and education I have developed a keen understanding of culture and globalization that helps me identify with my students. Given the opportunity, I am confident that my skills and experience with three languages would make an immediate and long-term contribution to Any Institute. I would be delighted to discuss my qualifications with you. I will call your office on October 7 to schedule a convenient interview. Cecelia Anderson Enc. Resume
7 Saunders College of Business Business / Full-time 125 Colony Manor Rochester, NY [Date] Mr. Timothy T. Mellon Director of College Recruiting Midwest Mercantile Company 4500 Randolf Drive Chicago, IL Dear Mr. Mellon: I read your company s description in Job Choices in Business and would like to inquire about employment opportunities in your internship program. I am interested in retail management and would like to relocate to the Chicago area after graduation. My interest in business started in Junior Achievement while in high school and developed further through a variety of sales and retail positions during college. Through research of the top retailers in Chicago, Midwest Mercantile emerged as having a strong market position, an excellent training program, and a reputation for excellent customer service. In short, you provide the kind of professional retail environment I seek. My resume is enclosed for your consideration. My education and experience match the qualifications you seek in your interns, but they do not tell the whole story. I know from customer and supervisor feedback that I have the interpersonal skills and motivation needed to build a successful career in retail management. I know how busy you must be during this time of year, but I would appreciate a few minutes of your time. I will call you during the week of January 24 to discuss employment possibilities. In the meantime, if you need to contact me, my number is. Thank you very much for considering my request. I look forward to talking with you. (Signature) Craig S. Watson Attachments
