Dear Mr. Johnson:

 

The accompanying résumé is in response to your listing in the Chicago Tribune for a bank teller.

 

As an student studying economics, who also worked in the college bookstore, I understand the value of money and have the skills to handle it properly.  My three years of summer experience in the retail industry will translate well into a dedicated employee in the banking world.  In addition, I have a consistent record of working well with others and am certain I would be an asset to your bank.

 

I am excited about the opportunity to work with a respected financial institution.  Your company’s commitment to personal service has impressed me for many years, and I hope to be a part of that service.

 

I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my experience will best meet your needs.  Therefore, I will call your office on the morning of March 17 to inquire if a meeting can be scheduled at a convenient time.

 

I look forward to meeting you.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

James Petersen
