It was with great interest that I read the article about People Energy, Inc. in yesterday's Wall Street Journal. You are to be commended for your efforts in helping public utilities to create a more diverse workforce by placing talented women and minorities in executive jobs.
Based on the article's description of your firm and its philosophies, I feel that my credentials may be of interest to you. As the attached resume indicates, I have spent my entire career in the energy field, most recently with Quebec Hydro. I have advanced degrees in Energy Management and Public Policy, and served as a member of the Governor's Task Force on Energy Issues while I was living in Vermont.
I would like to find a position in the strategic planning or policy planning departments of a major energy provider (either private or public). My credentials and "insider's experience" may also be of great interest to an energy consulting firm. My husband was recently offered a job in the New York metro area, and so my job search will be concentrated there.
We are planning to visit New York to househunt during the first week of November. May I call you to schedule an interview then?
I appreciate your consideration and, again, commend your good work.
