I will be working for an internet start-up, pre-launch! It’s in La Canada, only 5.5 miles from my apartment! Here’s the email that got me the job…
Dear Human Resource Manager,
I am writing to inquire about the Project Coordinator / Facilitator position. I live in Glendale, and have spent the past two years working for Disney Stores North America (headquarters) in Project Coordination and Management.
Due to mass-layoffs at Disney, I am available immediately, and I live in North Glendale (close to the 2 and the 134 freeways, near La Canada). This position sounds perfect, but the salary is much lower than I have been making. My most recent salary is $—–, with $—– prior to that.
If you decide to upgrade this position to that of Project Manager or add more responsibility and salary to the Project Coordinator position, I would be extremely interested. I am looking for a great organization to become a part of, very long term. I have ambitious goals to reach VP level within 10 years, as I am 30 – with a wealth of management history already built up.
I also have experience in the web industry. I worked for a dot-com during the boom in the late 90’s as a Web Team Manager, hiring and supervising designers and programmers. I have proficient html and photoshop experience myself!
Please review my resume and feel free to contact me at any time. I would love to learn more about your company; and, if there is an opportunity for us to work together, I would love to explore it!
==================
Confidence goes a long way! I am very excited! I start on Wednesday, June 11th!
