I am interested in the management trainee position you advertised in last Sunday’s edition of the Suburb Herald. I have enclosed my resume highlighting my background and feel my accomplishments will be valuable to Tiger Photo Labs.
Through my part-time work at Rally Photo, I am extremely familiar with the film developing process and photography equipment. Many of the courses I have taken at Illinois State University are directly related to business and management. The following table summarizes my course work.
Business: Accounting, Business Law, Finance, Marketing, Retailing, Sales
Management: Auditing, Forecasting, Information Systems, Investments, Operations
Given my extensive course work and experience at Rally Photo, I feel I could be a definite asset to your organization. I look forward to hearing from you to schedule an interview and to discuss my career opportunities with Tiger Photo Labs.
