To whom it may concern,

This is the President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson. Are you surprised to be hearing from me? I am sending in my resume because I would like to become one of your employees. I believe that I am qualified to be the manager. I believe that I have more than enough experience to be manager and to watch over other employees.

There are many reasons for which I believe that I can be a manager at your offices. I am presently the President of the United States, and with this occupation has come very much responsibility. Everyday I am forced to make important decisions on whether or not to do that affect the entire country. Proof of this would be in the fact that everyday I have to wrestle with the idea of whether or not I should enter my country into war. I also believe that I could be a great manager because I could help people learn on the job. My qualification for this is in my teaching credentials. Before becoming the President of the United States I taught for many years. I was also in public office. As the President I also have obtained a skill of speaking in public so I will easily be able to talk to other employees and even customers with concerns. I graduated for the college of New Jersey, which is now known as Princeton University. I am known by peers to be able to teach people many things, as I have occasionally been called the "Schoolmaster of Politics."

Once again, I believe that I would be a great addition to your staff as a manager. I will hopefully be in contact with you or a member of your organization soon, and I await your word on whether or not I have received the job. Once again, I would like to emphasize that I am overly qualified for this job. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely yours,

Woodrow Wilson
