Dear Ms._____________:

I am seeking an RN position on a medical unit in your hospital. From the classified advertisements in the West County Journal, I understand that you have a position available.

As you can see from the attached resume, I have two years of experience caring for patients on a medical unit. I enjoy the professional relationships and opportunities for teaching available working with patients on a medical unit.

I wish to work at your hospital because of its excellent reputation for quality patient care. I have also performed volunteer work with nurses from your hospital who were very enthusiastic about the hospital environment and career advancement opportunities.

I am available for interviews the week of September 6, 2001. Please let me know if it would be convenient for you to meet with me then. My phone number is (555) 555-8888. I look forward to meeting you to discuss possible employment.

Sincerely,

[signature]
