Sample cover letter for Full Time position at Brandywine Hospital

Dear XXXX

I am excited to be applying to the position of Marketing and Public Relations Coordinator at Brandywine Hospital, which I learned about through Franklin & Marshall College’s DipLink system. In researching the hospital, I was particularly impressed with all of the changes that have recently been initiated, specifically the room renovations and new lab facility. Brandywine’s community programs like “Healthy Woman” and HealthLine are also innovative tools that I am confident I could help to coordinate, market and promote.

Through several internship experiences, I honed my writing, editing and proofreading skills. I have written, designed, and managed the distribution of newsletters and pro-gram guides. I have developed e-news and used Constant Contact to send and track the number of emails read. Furthermore, I have researched and updated any emails that were invalid or bounced thus ensuring that our contact database was current. For F&M’s independent college newspaper -The College Reporter- I completely revamped the web site and created a social media presence using Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr.

I have planned and coordinated a number of special events through both internships and for my college sorority. One event that I am particularly proud of is a fundraising gala attended by 150 college and community members. The event featured live music, a silent auction, and ultimately raised $10,000 for a local woman’s shelter. As a result of my confidence in public speaking, my sorority nominated me to be the event’s Master of Ceremonies, which was an exhilarating and fulfilling experience.

I have always had a very positive attitude and the ability to complete tasks and goals in a timely manner. I have strong customer-service skills, which I began developing in high school while working in retail settings. I love being part of a team but am also a self-start and able to work independently. In short, I believe that I am the ideal candidate for this position.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards, 

XXXX
