Dear Mr. Miller,

I am currently studying at ESADE business school in Madrid and will graduate next June. Last year I completed an internship with Air France in Paris where I acquired extensive knowledge of the airline industry. I am also now working as a part-time check-in agent for Iberia in Madrid.

At present, I am focusing on profit centre business models, and I am keen to pursue my career development in the field of air transport. Access Airlines is well-known for its innovative approach to financial management: with the theoretical knowledge and the practical experience I have acquired, I feel I could make a significant contribution to profitability as a future profit centre manager in your organization. I will be available to work from the beginning of July next year. Please find enclosed my resume and a copy of my Air France internship report.

I would be grateful for the opportunity to meet you to discuss the possibility of a position with your company. You can reach me at the above address. Thank you for your interest: I look forward to speaking to you in the near future.

Sincerely yours,

Adriana Fernandez
