I am very interested in a job position with your company and would like the opportunity to meet with you to show you my credentials. I believe with the skills that I have learned in my training program, I can be a great asset to you and your company.
Please contact me and let me know when we can meet. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
