Letter to Friend re Change of Job

Dear ___,

Since we have known each other I have been in private law practice. Although I have enjoyed the past several years and have found the practice to be both intellectually stimulating and financially rewarding, I look forward to becoming an integral part of a management team, instead of an outside adviser and look forward to participating in the long-term results of the team effort.

My earlier public accounting experiences, together with my law practice and my current position as a partner with the office of a national law firm, have given me exposure to a wide range of problems in large and small companies from the perspective of both a CPA and a lawyer. In addition, I have gained management experience through the performance of significant administrative duties in each of the law firms.

I am excited about stepping into a position in which I will be able to utilize my legal, accounting and administrative skills, and at the same time experience new challenges and opportunities.

I've enclosed a copy of my resume for your perusal. Please feel free to pass along copies to any of your business associates that you think may have an interest.

I appreciate your taking the time to consider my situation, and I look forward to talking to you soon.

Best personal regards,
