Tim Boone 913-345-9105 TK342434@gmail.com T April 12, 2013 John Smith 702 SW 8th St, Suite 200 Bentonville, AR 94025 Wal-Mart Dear Mr. Smith, I am writing to express my interest in a full time Financial Analyst position at Wal-Mart. I believe that Wal-Mart’s ability to manage costs despite highly complex operations make it a great company to learn best practices in financial management. I believe that I could contribute significantly to this team. I possess three strengths that would allow me to add value to this role; strong organizational capabilities, great communication abilities, and solid problem solving skills. Organization – As a finance manager, I allocated funds for four major Army Bases in excess of $60M annually. Communication– I developed and presented weekly reports for management which summarized the financial position including income, expenses, capital usage and cash flows. Problem Solving – As a financial analyst, I reduced costs by 6% by redesigning the internal financial controls process through implementing a standard financial procedures guide. I am excited to take the next step in my career and join Wal-Mart as a Financial Analyst. I believe my background uniquely qualifies me for this role and my skill-set will allow me to contribute from day one. I have included my resume for your review, and look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Tim Boone
