Dear Ms. Arellano:

In response to your announcement in Manila Time Magazine, I present my details with pleasure for the post of Librarian.  I have enclosed my curriculum vitae as per the requirements you have stated in the advertisement.

I am a graduate of Library Science from Pilar State University where I also took up graduate studies.  I have been working in a Bataan Library for the last five years and have practical experience of classifying and cataloguing of books and periodicals. In addition, I am conversant with different modern systems of cataloging and copying documents.

Mr. M.A. Lindstrom, Head
Personnel Department
Rhode Island Oil Company
Sarnia, Texas

Dear Mr. Lindstrom:

I talked to your Austin representative, Mr. Clapper, and he informed me that it is a policy of your Company to employ college students of petroleum engineering each summer as assistant gaugers.  I should like to submit my application for that position.

While working with the Marshall Drilling Company, I became thoroughly familiar with the location of wells on your Chalker and Sarnia fields.  In fact, I happened to be working with the crew that drilled the first deep dual-completion well on the Dole lease last summer.  The course which I completed this year in Petroleum Production covered production gauges and their functions and operation quite thoroughly.

Please refer to the enclosed data sheet for details of my education and experience and the names of persons who have consented to express an opinion about my ability and character.

I shall be glad to go to your Sarnia office any Saturday on a few hours’ notice.  Unfortunately, my schoolwork makes it virtually impossible for me to go during the week.

Yours respectfully,

Malcolm Richards

Far East University
Morayta, Manila

Dear Dr. Santiago:

The unprecedented increase in the enrollment of the university will undoubtedly necessitate the creation of new position for Japanese instructors to take charge of additional classes.  Should this occasion arise, please consider me an applicant for the position.

In 1998, I finished a full, four year college course I the University of East Asia, this city, having made education my special study.  At the Graduate School of the same university, I secured a thoro training in Japanese, in addition to my major studies – General Science – and in 1995, I was conferred the degree of Master of Arts.  I have already spent two years in the preparation of my PhD.

From 1999 to the present, I have been employed as instructor in Japanese by the universities of Santo Tomas and National respectively, having entered their employ shortly after my graduation.  I am at present teaching Japanese Grammar and Composition, and Commercial Correspondence in the vocational high school of these universities.

Tho I am enjoying very much my work, I should like to change because I am desirous of entering a larger, broader field, where I could get more experience, and thus be permanently attached to the institution.

I am a Filipina, Roman Catholic, twenty nine years old, single, and in good health.

Should you desire references, I shall be glad to furnish them.

I am confident of my ability to demonstrate the full value of my services to you just as soon as you give me a chance to do so.  Please give me an interview
