Dear Recruiter Committee:

Thank you for the opportunity to submit my personal profile here. I am looking for a position that aligns with my values and professional goals.
About me: My name is Ana, I am 28 years old, Brazilian. I am currently attending to a Master of Arts in International Studies at University of San Francisco. I am fascinated with Culture, Power, and Social Movements. As an immigrant from Brazil, my great interest lies in Cultural Resistance, Feminist Politics and Immigrant Rights. I intend to work for Women’s and Immigrants’ Rights Organizations, helping promote and protect the legal and political rights of women and immigrants everywhere.
I majored in Social Communication from the University of Oeste Paulista (UNOESTE), Brazil, in 2012. While acquiring my bachelor’s degree, I worked for a television channel in the commercial sector, focused on prospecting investors to support the TV News and journalism team in meaningful social projects. I also volunteered in community-oriented projects, helping to spread information and engaging people in important social causes. After my graduation, I worked for an advertising agency, focused on non-profit and institutional clients, where I held the position of Advertising Campaign Manager. Also, I have worked as a Communications Coordinator in a packaging company. This position involved many functions as searcher, planner, writer, and public relations coordinator. I was largely responsible for building the company-community communication bridge, understanding the current context and how the company could positively affect the surrounding community, developing content strategies to communicate company values, social responsibility and last but certainly not least, the company’s commitment to minimizing the environmental impact of the packing process.
In order to improve my English skills, I enrolled in the Au Pair program which has allowed me to work and study in the United States for the past two years in three different states. This exchange program gave me the opportunity to immerse myself in a new and diverse environment where I met people from so many places, learned a great deal about different cultures and raised my personal awareness even more about significant issues globally.
I believe my diverse personal, educational, and professional backgrounds, coupled with my international perspective, offer a unique blend for the job positions in the USA. My previous experience provides me with strong intercultural communication skills that I will apply within the organization.
I very much look forward to an opportunity to tell you more about myself. I am appreciative of your consideration.


Sincerely,
Ana Gomes Nogueira
