Job-Search Career Network Contact Cover Letter Sample

 

23 Hickory Tree Way
Belle Mead, NJ 08502
(908) 555-7495

 

Ms. Lindsey Hall
Merck & Co., Inc.
One Merck Drive
Whitehouse Station, NJ 08889

 

Dear Ms. Hall,

 

We met at the Corporate Strategy meeting last month, but I didn't get a chance to give you a business card and ask if you are willing to join my career network.

 

I am writing today to send you all my contact information, including my business card, because I think it could be mutually beneficial to share this information with you.

 

While we work in different areas of the organization, I felt the rapport we shared was so strong that we should keep in contact, possibly work together on a future endeavor.

 

Thanks for your time. I look forward to hearing back with your contact information -- and your acceptance into my network of contacts.

 

Sincerely,

 


 

Scott Morris
