HIRING DIRECTOR NAME  \nCOMPANY NAME STREET ADDRESS CITY, STATE ZIP CODE  \nDAY, MONTH, YEAR  \nDear MS./MR. HIRING DIRECTOR NAME:  \n• Use a name if possible. If there is no way to identify the name, utilize Dear COMPANY NAME Hiring Director or Dear COMPANY NAME Hiring Committee  \nPARAGRAPH 1: Introduction Paragraph  \n• This is where you introduce yourself (your year in school, major, graduation date when applying for after graduation jobs) and name the job you are applying for – use a job reference number if the company website lists one.  \n• Specify why you are interested in the position.  \nPARAGRAPHS 2-3: Why you? Sell yourself – this is where you align yourself to the company and the job (where you connect the job opening and your resume – tie it all together) .  \n• This is where you connect your past, present, and future – this is NOT where you regurgitate your resume but rather, it is where you connect the dots between your resume and the job qualifications.  \n• Highlight specific experiences and the skills, knowledge, and growth that came from them. Leadership roles, undergraduate research, internships, co-ops, volunteer work, team sports, student organizations, team projects, non-engineering part-time or summer jobs, etc. are all opportunities to round out the skill set you bring to a company. Merge some of the valuable skills from those opportunities with what you’ve learned at UK to showcase what sets you apart from other candidates.  \n• Emphasize that you understand the job requirements and how you meet those requirements. Sell yourself as the best candidate.  \nPARAGRAPH 4: Summary/Closing  \n• Summarize briefly/succinctly your qualifications.  \n• Do not be hopeful – be confident: “Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to discussing my qualifications for this position” or “Thank you, and I welcome the opportunity to discuss the contributions I will bring to the COMPANY NAME team.” or “I look forward to speaking with you”  \nSincerely,  \nHANDWRITTEN SIGNATURE: upload or scan your signature if you have the ability/time – it’s vital for snail mail and dropping off in person but is an optional nice touch for email and online application portals  \nDana K.
