resume-die casting.pdf
Dear Hiring Manager,
Please accept this letter and enclosed resume as my application for the die casting internship opportunity for the
summer 2014. I am a current junior and will be completing my BS in Materials Science&Engineering in May
2015. I am writing this email in response to Mr. Twarog's email correspondence with our department
coordinator Janie Carlin. I am very interested in pursuing a career in die casting industry and am persuaded that
I can prove my passion in this field working as a summer intern. I am willing to relocate though I prefer
working in my home state,MA or otherwise school district around Bethlehem, PA is fine too. I will be available
to start working from May 12th until August 25th.
It is my hope that we can set up an interview very soon to discuss further my qualifications and learn more
about this opportunity. I may be reached anytime on my phone at your convenience if you wish to contact me.
Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to speaking with you about the contribution I
could make to your organization.
Sincerely,
Kerem Ege Calay
