710 West 80 Street

January 24, 1989
Mr. Richard Levy¹
First Security Bank
2250 Sixth Avenue
San Diego, Ca 91201
Dear Mr. levy:
Is there a place at First Security for a person with a thorough business education, experience in the business world, and an earnest desire to accept responsibility and handle challenges? If so, I believe that I can meet your need.
On December 20, 1988, I received a BBA degree from Brigham Young University besides courses in accounting², management, and marketing³. I have taken speech, industrial psychology⁴, and business communications to better prepare myself to work effectively with people.
As an employee at Sears, Roebuck in Provo, Utah, I have performed various duties from receiving clerk to cashier to candidate for management trainee⁵. I believe that my supervisor⁶ there (see the enclosed resume) will tell you that I was a dependable, conscientious⁷ worker. My part?time work of approximately 25 hours a week enabled me to pay the major part of my college expenses.
In addition to education and experience, Mr. Levy, my college activities have prepared me to work well with people. As senior vice⁸ president in charge of recruiting for my professional fraternity, I organized a number of educational and social meetings for prospective⁹ members. During the time I served as chairman of recruiting, we pledged more men and women than we had for the previous three years.Besides the qualifications mentioned, I would bring to your bank a desire to succeed and a willingness to work hard. Please look over the enclosed resume, which provides more details about my background. If you think I could serve First Security in an entry?level position, please call me. I will arrange to come in for an interview at your convenience.
Yours very truly,
（Signature）
John Alexander
