Subject:

Application for Employment

To whom it may concern,

I am a graduate of the Advertising and Public Relations Program at St. Lawrence College. I have

extensive professional experience and I am seeking a permanent position at a distinguished

communications agency in Toronto.

I am proficient in ad creation and design; however I am most interested in starting my career

on the accounts side of the business, where my understanding of client relationships and

brand concepts can be exercised to their full potential.

My previous work experience paired with my courses at St. Lawrence have allowed me to sharpen

my problem-solving, presentation, and communication skills to the point where I feel they give mea distinct advantage in the advertising industry, particularly among new graduates in the field. I

have the capacity for great work under tight deadlines and the ability to translate my

outstanding interpersonal skills into effective client relationships.

I am very interested in a permanent position at your agency. I would like the opportunity to speak with someone regarding any available positions starting in Spring, 2008. Please contact me

anytime by phone or email to discuss any opportunities and perhaps to schedule a meeting in the

near future. I currently live in Kingston, but I make frequent trips to Toronto, and I am movingthere permanently in two weeks.

Sincerely,

Charles Johnston
