Hey there!

I am writing to find out more about what you do. I go to Pitt and was curious about jobs and stuff. Is the pay high? Do I have to work long hours? What are your vacation plans like? It would be nice if you can email me back and let me know about this stuff. I kind of need to know ASAP because I want to start interviewing soon so if you can get back to me this week, that would be great.

Dear Mr. Silliman:

I write to introduce myself. I am currently a sophomore at Pitt studying Archaeology. I obtained your information from the Pitt Career Network. I have taken a variety of courses within the major, but have not focused in any area. I learned from your profile that you are a Curator at Super Dinosaur Museum and would appreciate learning about the type of work you do. I would like to select courses that will be useful to my future career goals, but at this point, I am unsure of what that might be. Might you have advice for me?
