Mr. Oliver Digby

Director of Human Resources Hunt and Ketcham Inc. 1228 Euclid Avenue Cleveland, Ohio 44115 Dear Mr. Digby:

Thank you for taking the time last Friday to explain why my lack of field sales experience in the technical publishing market prevents me from being considered for the marketing manager’s position at Hunt and Ketcham.

Thank you, moreover, for arranging for an interview that same day with your director of sales. Ms. Cantrell gave me a very detailed picture of a field rep’s responsibilities. She also stated that in light of all my prior experience in educational publishing, I ought to make the transition to technical publishing very easily. I was encouraged to learn that after a year or two of experience in the field, I would be a strong candidate for any marketing manager’s position that might open at that time.

Ms. Cantrell has promised to let me know within the next four weeks whether she in in a position to offer me a field rep’s job. If she does, I very much look forward to seeing you again. In any event, thank you for all the help you have given me.

Sincerely,
