Thank you for taking the time to interview for the position of assistant director

Note: This letter is a bit lengthy, but it does a good job of summing up the strengths of the interview and enticing the employer with the idea that hiring this candidate means that more ideas and innovations cannot be far behind. Your thank-you letter will typically be shorter.

Baltimore, MD 

Dear Ms. Nessen:

I want to thank you for taking the time to interview me yesterday for the position of assistant director of the Dayton Sumner Memorial Art Museum. You, Mr. Dawson, and Dr. Acquino exuded warmth, and I know we could all have an excellent working relationship.

As I further studied the job description for the position, I grew even more confident that I could take the museum to new heights of success. With the resources I've gathered, I am ready to hit the ground running with grant-writing. The 15 percent bonus for grants brought in is an excellent incentive, and I would devote a significant portion of my time to this important venture. I also have a number of great ideas for community and media relations and am excited by your interest in bringing more schoolchildren to the museum.

As I mentioned when we met, I would like to use my fine arts degree and journalism minor to enhance the museum's identity while at the same time meeting the needs and expectations of the community. I believe I can make a significant contribution to the fundraising effort, and I am particularly interested in exploring a corporate donor program.

I am convinced I could bring a new degree of organization to the museum, including sinking my teeth into making the workspace far less chaotic and far more functional. More importantly, I'd like to get communications on track so that newsletters and invitations are sent out on a timely basis. I have some ideas for making the newsletter more user-friendly. I feel it is extremely important to maintain close communication between the board and director, and I am committed to doing so.

Ms. Nessen, I thank you again for considering me for this position. I look forward to the possibility of working with you.

Sincerely,



John Oakley

Proposal Letter

Every organization is set up with the intention of sale of either products or services. And each one of them needs to promote their product or service to survive in the market. These are times of “survival of the fittest” and each organization has to prove that it is fitter than the other. All these organizations obviously preach that their products or services are the best as compared to their competitors but they need to prove it to the customer today because ‘Customer is king”. When an organization or individual has made a decision to buy a product or avail of a service they request for a quote from organizations that offer the desired product or service and a Proposal Letter is then sent by these organizations. A Proposal Letter is a price quotes or benefit description offered to an individual to make an attempt for a sale.

Here is a sample sorry letter to friend: Sunny Taylor, B-12, Bungalow Road, Munich 13 th  May, 2010 Dear Sunny, I want to express my apologies for all the things that have happened in past few weeks. I seriously gave a thought to all the problems that have aroused between us and tried to figure out the mistakes. What I feel is that all this happened due to the communication gap. In all the years of our friendship we had shared each and everything whether it is good or bad. We faced the worst moments with a great zeal because we know that we two were together.
