Dear Amanda Melone,

This letter is about possible employment opportunities within your organization. I am seeking
a career in local government. Enclosed you will find my resume’ with further information about
my education and experience.

I am currently employed by Cantigny Park as a full-time security guard and for the past four
years I have been managing a warehouse medical facility in charge of three other security
guards. I have also been a student at College of DuPage (COD) studying Criminal Justice and
Homeland Security; and was a founding member of the COD Criminal Justice club.

I feel my experience and work history would be an asset to the City of Elmhurst in the position
as an alderman. I believe that my education, and experience as a security guard have taught
me how to deal with people in many different backgrounds. I would welcome discussing with
you any current or future opening you may have. Thank you for your time and consideration. I
hope that I will be considered for the job opening at company.

Sincerely,

Richard E. Radtke
