Dear Mr. Doe,
Thank you for the opportunity to meet with you yesterday and interview for the Advertising Coordinator position
at Big Time Advertising Company. This position aligns with my previous experience in copy editing and media
buying as well as my academic preparation in marketing and English. When you discussed Big Time Advertising
Company’s new social media division and how this position would work collaboratively with that division, I was
very excited as I will be able to utilize my social media campaign design and analytics experience from my year long
internship with Clemson University’s social media team in helping this division implement new campaigns on
behalf of clients. I'm confident I will be able to make an immediate and positive contribution to your organization.
Thank you for the opportunity to be considered for this position. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need
further information.
Sincerely,
Jane Doe
