Dear Mr. Smith,<br />
Work Preparation eManual<br />
Peter Jones at EFG Financial Services and a friend of my parents, suggested I contact you. He thought<br />
that you would be a good person for me to speak with, regarding career options in the automotive<br />
industry. Given the changes the industry is going through, I would like to make the most informed career<br />
decisions that I can.<br />
I am a second year student in the Mechanical Engineering Technology Co‐op program at <strong>Humber</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong>. My career goal is to work for one of the big Auto Makers, or in the automotive parts sector.<br />
As I prepare my job search plan for a Co‐op opportunity for this coming summer, it would be most<br />
helpful to have input from a person who works in the industry, to help me better understand what my<br />
employment options are. It would be helpful to know more about the type of work I would be qualified<br />
to do, so I can structure my resume and interview approach accordingly. I am also interested in learning<br />
about career progression and growth prospects within your industry in general.<br />
I would appreciate fifteen minutes of your time, either over the phone or in person, to obtain your<br />
feedback on some of my questions about your industry. I will contact you early next week to see if there<br />
is a convenient time for you to talk. For background information, attached is a copy of my current<br />
resume. I look forward to speaking with you.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Joe Jones<br />
