JOB LETTER PARAGRAPH
I am applying for this position because it is one of the only jobs I've seen advertised that really appeals to my interests and skills. Because I combine communication skills with an ability to analyze data, I've found that there aren't many positions that want me to do both things. With this job, I will be able to develop my skills and advance my career interests.
