Dear Mr. Smith
I'm a first-year student in the M.B.A. program at the Warton Business School in Philadelphia.
I've heard from my friend Bill Eastmann that you might wish to have an American student with your airline this summer as an intern. I am very interested in the possibility of such an internship during this summer.
My professional experience has given me an in-depth knowledge of the air transportation industry. In particular, I've worked for American Airlines, the Federal Aviation Administration, and Kurth & Co, Inc., an aviation consulting firm where I was Manager of Airline Analysis. My responsibility included the study of schedules, fares, equipment selection, and financial results. I prepared numerous studies for both jet and turboprop routes including passenger and pure cargo service for proposed transatlantic and transpacific services.
I wish to place this experience at the disposal of your airline. I believe that my knowledge of the deregulated air transportation industry in the United States could be quite beneficial for your business.
I have enclosed a copy of my resume. If my background and experience are of interest to you, please phone me at 215 456 3478. I would be interested in meeting with you to discuss further possibilities of such a position, and your requirements.
Sincerely,
Mark Diamond
