Mr.
ABC
A.T. SATTAR & SONS
MA JINNAH ROAD, KARACHI
Dear Mr. ABC:
I had the extraordinary opportunity to work closely these past two years
with Jane Smith, an A.T. Kiley consultant in the Higher Education
Practice, as a member of XYZ University's Presidential Search Committee.
This was my first exposure to the consulting profession, and I think it is
a perfect match for someone with my academic record, communication and
leadership skills, and drive to succeed in a collegial and team-oriented
environment.
In my curricular,
co-curricular and professional achievements during the past four years I
have shown initiative, creativity in problem solving and a commitment to
building consensus and excellence throughout our college community and in
a variety of settings. As an intern in the Office of the U.S. Deputy
Secretary of Education, I worked with the Senior Advising team to provide
accurate, effective and concise statistical and anecdotal data to a
variety of constituents in order to support legislative proposals
concerning the condition of America's public schools. I combined the
written and oral skills I have gained from courses in American Studies and
Government with quantitative and analytical training in a high intensity
environment.
As Vice President of
Academic Affairs for the Student Government Association and a student
representative on several college committees (including the one which
nominated the sixth President of XYZ University), I have learned:
- to use language precisely
and effectively
- to articulate
myself to a range of audiences
- the value of integrity
and persistence in working toward short- and long-term personal
and institutional goals
The opportunity to
effect positive change for a range of institutions is the most attractive
aspect of consulting for me. Employees have described A.T. Kiley as
"down to earth" and as having an "open culture." I
feel lucky to have been part of a college community whose openness has
allowed for measured risks and the candor necessary to achieve its goals,
and I hope to begin my career in a similarly rigorous and collegial
environment where can I learn from industry leaders. I look forward to
exploring further my opportunities at A.T. Kiley and will call next week
to see if it is possible to arrange an interview.
Sincerely,
Signature
