Dear Mr. Thomas,

I am interested in applying for the Publishing internship position at Burlington Press this summer, and have submitted my resume for your review.

I have had a great deal of experience in English Communications just through my field of study in the past three years at the University of Vermont, as well as about three years professional ofiice experience working part time for a law office doing administrative work.

My career goal is to work towards a position in the Journalism/Publishing industry, and having researched-as well as been an avid reader of-the Burlington Press, cannot think of a better place for me to begin my career, and start learning all aspects of the industry. I am a dedicated writer with great communications, research, and organizational skills. Moreover, I have a passion for the pursuits of the business. This said, I am the best candidate for your open internship this summer.

I would be happy to schedule a time to explain further why I am the best match for your Burlington Press internship, at your convenience. I can be reached at 555-555-5555; and very much look forward to your call. Thanks so much for your time and consideration.


Sincerely,

Ryan Sellers
