Mr. John,
Re: Adjunct Faculty Application

I belong to Nevada and wish to fill the Adjunct Faculty position in Sociology School for Professionals. I have acquired a wide experience in the past seven years and planning to shift to New York for sharing my experience and learning more about various students and their mindset towards sociology. I believe I can be a good mentor for them as I love to be around professionals eager to learn and who are in turn willing to spread their knowledge.

Thank you for reading my letter and I earnestly hope I will be given a chance to work with your school and utilize my potential to the best of my capabilities and simultaneously grow in my career. Hoping to hear from you soon.

Yours Sincerely,
(Signature)
Taison John
