Gina Suarez, Head
Communications Assistant Search Committee
The CAIA Association
29 South Pleasant Street
Amherst, MA 01002
February 3, 2016
Dear Ms. Suarez:
Thank you for speaking with me about the Communications Assistant position last Friday. After
hearing more about this opportunity from you and from Julia Jimenez who interned at CAIA last
summer, I am even more excited about applying. With my strong communication and
technology skills and background in marketing, I believe I could make a strong contribution to
the CAIA team.
I have a demonstrated track record of developing effective communications and publicity
strategies. For example:
I designed publicity materials and launched a website for a two-day women’s leadership
conference in New England. My efforts increased event visibility and attendance by 15%
from previous years.
As an intern for Smith’s Poetry Center I initiated and maintained new promotional contacts
that built exposure for our upcoming events.
At CNN last summer I gained writing and editing experience and researched, created, and
updated CNN’s entry on Wikipedia.
I am drawn to CAIA’s culture of excellence and emphasis on professional development,
particularly for women in finance. As a financial aid recipient at a women’s college, CAIA’s “100
Women in Hedge Funds” scholarship program mission of better equipping women to navigate
an increasingly complex investment landscape while removing financial barriers to their career
development greatly appeals to me.
I look forward to contributing my energy and initiative to support CAIA’s goals of expanding
promotional efforts while providing exceptional customer service. I’m available at your
convenience to discuss my interest in the Communications Assistant position at CAIA, and I
look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Suzan Smith
