Application rejections

Baxter Conners
Vice President
Company 203203
Wall St.New York,
NY 10015

Dear Mr. Conners,
Thank you for your letter of February 17th. After careful consideration I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me employment with your bank.

This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates it is impossible for me to accept all refusals.

Despite Company 203's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore I will initiate employment with your firm immediately following graduation. I look forward to seeing you then.

Sincerely,

XXXXXXXX

thanks :) sometimes i wish ppl in the real world were that considerate. i guess we all leave our masks behind when we blog. the voice comes straight from the heart...yes..i do need that care..but i've learnt not to expect anything from the world..

A Arora said...

hey, that was real sweet. thanks. as for ppl who don't deserve it, who's to decide who deserves what? what is more important is at least to give people a shot, so you know what worked and didn't...and u have no regrets at 40...that's all that matters...
