Dear Ms. Sasaki,
Thank you for applying for the position of marketing representative. We appreciate your interest
in NZ World.
Although your resume shows that you have good preparation for a career in marketing,
unfortunately you don’t meet all our required qualifications. You have the degree we are looking for,
but not the experience. Your sales experience in a electronics store is a good background, but your time
there is just half of what we ask for as a minimum. In addition, you have no experience in clothing sales.
However, your resume also shows some of your strengths. You have excellent grades and have
been active in your campus’s marketing club. Therefore, we would like to offer you a position as an
intern. This is a three-month, unpaid internship. Since you just graduated last month, I think this would
be a great opportunity for you. It would give you some of the experience you will need to start your
career. For example, your internship would give you some practice with public speaking, an important
marketing skill that is lacking on your resume.
Contact me by April 1 if you are interested in accepting this position. I look forward to hearing
from you.
Sincerely,
Camilla Crowe
