[quote=Anonymous]A longtime (15+ year) friend worked with a person directly for 8 years in government. They are both now private sector. The friend's former colleague, whom she is still in touch with now leads a division at a large company. The company has 3 openings I am very interested in, and it's impossible to get a foot in the door. My friend told me to write her former colleague and ask for help getting my resume in. The positions are not in his division directly. I am really struggling with this, as I do not want to seem too demanding or self serving. What I am asking for is a favor--a large one--but I am very qualified, and am grateful. What do you think of this: Dear Name-- Name was kind enough to pass your email address to me. I am writing because xxx company has three current openings that I am very interested in. Would you be willing to pass along my resume and provide me with an internal contact I could follow up with? I am very grateful for any help. I hope our paths might cross through name friend sometime soon. Many thanks Me [/quote]
