Dear Mr. Name:

John Name at the University of X’ Center for Technology Transfer suggested that I

contact you about career opportunities at Arthur Andersen. I have an advanced education

in physics which has provided me with superior creative problem solving skills and

analytic and conceptual abilities. I have also developed my communication and business

skills through leadership roles in student government and an internship in technology

transfer. Though my work in physics has certainly been challenging, I am now interested

in similarly challenging work with more impact. I would like to bring my communication

skills, creative problem solving ability and my extensive leadership experience to Large

Consulting Company to provide measurable positive impact for Large Consulting

Company’s clients.

With my background in physics, I am certainly comfortable and knowledgeable about

technology. In fact, in my current internship at the University of X’s Center for

Technology Transfer, I analyze the commercial value of new technologies, and their

market potential, and then market the technologies to target companies for possible

licenses. My computer technical experience includes the design and implementation of

the complete computer automation and data acquisition system for an x-ray scattering

laboratory, and the re-engineering of the computer systems for my current laboratory.

This experience in technology may make me an ideal candidate for a position in the

business consulting/information technology practice at Large Consulting Company.

However, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss the possible fit between my skills

and the needs of any position in your business consulting. I will call you in the next few

days to see if we can arrange an interview.

Sincerely,

Vijay Applicant
