•
Specific example based on information in résumé

How you will help the organization
After speaking with Ms. Anderson, I looked at your website. From your online information, it’s
clear you are looking to compete in Asia in the networking and data transfer markets. Many
companies in this part of the world are migrating information from legacy systems.
As a second-
semester senior at the University of Dayton, I will graduate in May with a B.S. degree in Computer
Science with a focus on Networking and Data Transfer Management. I believe my background
closely matches the goals you outline on your website.
In fact, in Computer Science 390, I led a
group of students helping to design a new online database for the Dayton YMCA. This database
looked the same to users, but used a much more powerful search engine.
This experience will help
Data Systems Design because many of your potential customers have similar needs: seamless data
transfer, transparent user interface, and high-level security.
