Dear Ms. Cook,

Brett Taylor, one of your senior consultants, called to inform me of the recent opening at your firm for an international economist. Brett knows that I have been seeking to move into the private sector after more than 15 years working as an international economist for the U.S. Department of Commerce.

I am writing without the advantage of having seen a job posting, so I would be most appreciative of receiving a job posting or description. If sending me this information does not violate any of your search protocol, please fax me at home at (310) 555-3859.

As my resume indicates, I have several qualifications and credentials that would be useful to a consulting firm:

I served on an economic advisory committee to the White House.
I developed a new computer modeling program that has been used successfully by several economists.
While my research keeps me abreast of factors affecting the entire world economy, my specialty is knowledge of major Asian economies, as my publications indicate.

I would be happy to provide you with references and other information you might need at any time. However, I hope that we may meet soon. Thanks for your consideration of this application.

Respectfully yours,

Martha Klingman
