Help Me, Help You
To whom it may concern,
Hello my name is S. Alyssa Gonzalez I am writing to you today seeking just a chance to speak with you honestly. The position I am applying for is Virtual Assistant. I heard about this opening through Indeed.
Why I am interested in working for Tocsin Magazine well I am looking to better my situation of being a single mother as well as learn about the industry I have a lifelong standing infatuation and admiration for.
I do not have anything published currently I do however have a meteorology assignment that I just submitted and aced actually. That will be my sample submission there is no link, sorry. I studied mass communications and aced that too. My teacher and classmates admired my creativity unfortunately I do not have the reel from my attempt at anchoring or even my psychic commercial which was hilarious for the time. All I'm asking for is an opportunity to showcase my skills, learn more, and maybe get paid. Lastly I would like to thank you for your time and consideration in reading this introduction and the applicant selection process. I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
S. Alyssa Gonzalez





Hi Alyssa,
Thank you for your message, for your honesty, and for the courage to openly share your situation.
That said, I have to admit I’m a bit confused. I’m not entirely sure what the purpose of your message is, or what specific kind of support you are requesting.
So I’d like to ask: What exactly do you need from me, or from Tocsin Magazine?
What kind of support are you looking for through this communication?
Once I understand that more clearly, I’ll be better able to respond appropriately.
Thank you again for reaching out and for your willingness to grow and connect.
Warm regards,
Dr. Wil Rodríguez
