Dear Ms. Smith:

It was a pleasure speaking with you at the Pomona College Career & Internship Fair on Friday, February 6th. Thank you for taking the time to speak with me. As I mentioned I will be graduating in May 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology.

I was very pleased to hear about the growth that is taking place in your company’s marketing department. I realize that in our brief meeting we were able to touch on only a few items regarding my qualifications. I have enclosed another copy of my resume for your convenience. Please note how well my internship experience at the Shaw & Company market research firm fits with the position we discussed.

I am very interested in setting up an appointment to meet with you at your office so that I can have the opportunity to see the department and meet the people about whom you spoke so favorably. In addition, I would like to discuss my qualifications in greater detail. I will contact you within a week to see if we can set a convenient appointment time. Again, thank you and it was a pleasure meeting you.

Sincerely,

(Don't forget to sign your letter if you are sending a hardcopy!)

Sammy Sagehen
