Dear Mr. Johnson:
The accompanying resume is in response to your listing in the Calgary Herald for a security officer.
I am especially interested in this position because my experience as a senior security professional in the financial district has prepared me for a disciplined, secure work environment and the challenges associated with unexpected events. I'm looking forward to using this experience for enhancing the security of a growing and community-conscious bank.
I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my experience will best meet your needs. My ideas on how to improve your bank's security posture may be of particular interest to you. 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 yours,

Dear Ms. Dobbs:
Please accept this as application for the position of Help Desk Analyst which was advertised on the Centennial College Co-op Board on September 14, 2003.
I feel that I am an excellent candidate for this position as I am currently enrolled in my 5th semester of the Microcomputer Analyst Program. My previous work experience exposed me to various hardware and software problems as well as situations requiring above average interpersonal and customer service skills. I have the ability to work well on my own but also enjoy the opportunity to work in a team environment.
Please do not hesitate to contact me to arrange an interview. I look forward to discussing my qualifications for this position and thank you in advance for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Joe Student
