Dear Mr. Greenstreet:

Ann Morgan, a young engineer who took my process design seminar given for AIChE last summer, has asked me whether I can put the two of you together, so that you might consider granting her an interview for a position in your process control department.

You know that I am a rather tough instructor, so it means something when I tell you that Ms. Morgan has an exceedingly strong grasp of process design and control especially considering she is just two years out of college. By the way, she showed me her transcript, and was a solid B+ student at Brightwater Tech, which, as you know, has one of the best programs on the East Coast.

My department is overstaffed and, since the acquisition, half of our work is being moved to the California location. If this was not the case, and we were looking to add personnel, I would make Ms. Morgan an offer tomorrow.

Whether she would be an ideal fit with your group I cannot say, although I know that technically she can handle a Process Engineer position with extreme competence. As for whether shed be a good addition to your team (which I suspect she would), why dont you give her an interview and find out for yourself?

Sincerely,Your Name
