- Here is the letter with the names changed. - lileve Nov 4, 13:43 13
  - Put what you're currently doing first, then where you'd love ideally to be employed, and then give a reason as to why you cannot accomplish this - Loyola Nov 4, 13:57
  - No one got the Sunnydale reference? Now I need an e-mail subject. -- nm - lileve Nov 4, 13:55
  - hon, get rid of the junior. don't let them see you having doubts about your talent. Who knows ... - zork Nov 4, 13:47 7
    - They are a traditonal agency. I've never worked in one. I don't know the ropes of how a real agency works. - lileve Nov 4, 13:49 5
      - Fine, then they can always come back and say they only positions available or they would consider you for are Junior ones. -- nm - VMan Nov 4, 13:50 1
        
        Almost anything to get me out of here. -- nm - lileve Nov 4, 13:51
      - sure, but treat yourself with respect or nobody else will - zork Nov 4, 13:49 2
        
        Okies. - lileve Nov 4, 13:50 1
        
        no worries -- nm - zork Nov 4, 13:52
    - Concur. -- nm - VMan Nov 4, 13:48
  - Probably scratch the end then. More of a "Thank you for your time and consideration of this matter. Any help would be greatly appreciated." - VMan Nov 4, 13:46 2
    - Actually I'd scratch help and replace with assistance. -- nm - VMan Nov 4, 13:48
    - the Army signoff is "v/r" for Very respectfully. I like it. -- nm - loosilu - I voted! Nov 4, 13:47
- That seems a little presumptuous. I would just go for Yours Faithfully. -- nm - Loyola Nov 4, 13:41 8
  - It really depends how well you know the other party too. -- nm - VMan Nov 4, 13:43 7
    - Yeah that's true. I would also probably include "I am happy to be available to discuss matters at any time with you if you so wish"...or words to that - Loyola Nov 4, 13:45 6
      - I'm asking this person to review my portfolio and to give me advice on getting a job in the industry she works in. -- nm - lileve Nov 4, 13:47 1
        
        but treat it like they might in a position to give you a job -- nm - zork Nov 4, 13:49
      - I like "Thank you for your attention in this matter" -- nm - loosilu - I voted! Nov 4, 13:47 3
        
        Definitely too, accomplishes the walking backwards out of room with head bowed thing :) -- nm - Loyola Nov 4, 13:50
        
        I always thank people for their *time* -- nm - zork Nov 4, 13:47 1
        
        I only do that when I am stealing their watch. -- nm - Roger More Nov 4, 13:52
