Dear Ms. Gingerich:
I am applying for the open position as a Product Marketing Assistant that I discovered while on
JMX Brands’ website. As a current student majoring in Professional and Technical Communication
at the University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee, I believe that I can bring a strong set of
communication skills, both written and verbal, and creativity to this position.
JMX Brands interests me because your website shows there is a clear passion to provide exceptional
service to customers. My experience and coursework provide me with the qualifications and skills to
perform the roles of this position and assist JMX Brands in improving the overall buying experience by
providing informative online content. A few examples of my experience include:
• Gaining content and search engine optimization skills through my Technical Writing course
• Developing a detail-oriented and focused mindset, especially when having to modify writing
pieces to match the needs and goals of diverse audiences.
• Collaborating with a Campus Experience tour guides as an Admissions Assist at USFSM to
develop innovative ways to attract potential students to our campus.
• Draft blog posts for the university’s Communications department to market events from a student
perspective.
As a hard-working and creative individual, I believe I have the expertise to fit in with your team of
energetic, organized, and independent employees and the desire to gain hands-on experience.
I am requesting an interview to review how my qualifications meet your needs and how my skills can
benefit this company. Kindly reach me at 941-592-2874-2874 or e-mail me at [email protected]. In
two weeks, I will check the status of my application. Thank you for your valued time and consideration.
