(INTRODUCTION)

Hi, My name is ___(Your Name)___.

I am a senior at ____(Your School)____, graduating in March of 2007. I have learned a lot in college, including how to focus and prioritize. This has led to an increasing GPA in each of my years here, including a __(Your GPA)__ last semester, and a __(Your Grade)__ in my major of ___(Your course)__.

I am a great communicator, and one of the things that I have enjoyed most about my time here at ___(Your school)___ is committing to university organizations that serve both the people on campus and in the neighboring community. I was elected to a leadership position in two different organizations.

(BODY - SAMPLE WORK ACCOMPLISHMENT)

As Vice President of our school marketing organization, I managed 25 members and had an annual budget of 10,000 Pesos. I led the planning and execution of one of the largest charitable events in the history of our school, raising over 200,000 Pesos for a local Childrens' Hospital. This event required motivating and coordinating my organizational committee to cover every detail, including acquiring approvals and permits for the University. I created an overall marketing strategy, which included contributions of advertising space from the student newspaper and the organization which distributes flyers in the dormitories. We focused on selling tickets in advance, hoping students who bought tickets in advance would tell their friends and build momentum for the event. Our plan worked - we sold over 60% of the tickets prior to the event, which is double the typical advance sales we would have ever expected.

In summary, I am a focused and detail-oriented person who leads by getting involved. I love marketing and advertising. I think I can contribute right away, given my classwork and practical experience. I realize I have a lot to learn, and I am eager to work for a company where I am exposed to smart and skilled marketing professionals.
