To Whom It May Concern,



Currently, I am a graduate of Connecticut College with a bachelor’s degree in International Relations focusing on the regions of the Middle East and East Asia. Due to my strong interest in the international community, I hope to eventually pursue a career in foreign policy. 



The opportunity to procure a position of employment at your organization would be an incredible experience which would allow me to gain a deeper understanding of the Middle East and East Asia. This position of employment would further develop my overall understanding of foreign policy since your organization is staffed by professionals that are well versed in East Asian and Middle Eastern language and cultural practices and thus experts in their field. 



As an ideal candidate I am a highly motivated, self-reliant individual who is committed to providing the highest quality of service to your organization. Research skills gained while attending Connecticut College and knowledge of the contemporary Middle East and East Asia make me a unique and valuable asset because of my ability to efficiently, collaboratively and effectively work with all types of professionals.      



Employment at your organization would be a wonderful experience of which I greatly look forward to. I will be available for employment after September 1st 2012. Also, I would be very happy to meet with you and your colleagues, at your convenience, to discuss my resume as well as your office’s training opportunities and objectives.



If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you.



Sincerely,





Nathan Galat
