Dear Mr. Lee,

I am very interested in the entry-level position that is available at ABC Investment Partners. I
recently graduated from XYZ University College and am actively seeking employment with firms
in the San Francisco area. My courses in investments, finance, and business have given me a
solid base upon which I plan to build my career.

During my college internships, I dealt with a variety of budgets and conducted market research
while handling numerous administrative duties. The experience allowed me to learn important
skills and to develop the confidence needed to succeed in a competitive environment.

I have enclosed my resume for your review. Thank you for your time and consideration.

It would be a pleasure to interview with you and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Ashley Applicant (signature hard copy letter)
