SAMPLE RESUME sampleresume@lion.lmu.edu (915) 318-0100 Current Address One LMU Drive, MS-B 00000 Los Angeles, CA 90045 Permanent Address 1234 Niaz Way Sacramento, CA 95100 October 1, 2006 Employment Manager [Company name] [Mailing address] [Mailing address cont.] Dear Employment Manager, I am applying for an introductory position involving marketing, which I saw on the Loyola Marymount University LionJobs website. The position interested me because it seems that you are looking for an employee with the strengths that I possess. According to the listing, the position requires a person that can think strategically and I am a strategic person. This strength allows me to sort through clutter and find the best route in any situation and also react well to unpredicted events. This strength would make me a valuable asset to your company because strategic thinking is a skill that can not be taught. As with most marketing jobs it is apparent that there is a probability of working in teams or with others. I am a great fit in this type of environment because I have a distinct and rare ability to relate and include. The combination of these strengths is hard to find in most people, typically its one or the other but because I have both I can stretch the circle of people involved with an activity, and make everyone feel like they are the most important part of what we are working for and to me. I also understand that this job is going to have deadlines and require a person who can achieve goals and deliver successfully with confidence. I am certain that I have the strengths to be a valued asset to your company with prospects of being a future leader and a desire to learn and advance within the company. You will find that I am very passionate in everything I do, and would welcome an opportunity to work within your company. I can be reached at (915) 318-0100 or via e-mail at sampleresume@lion.lmu.edu. I am available at any time. Thank your for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Sample Resume
