B. How to create Inquiry Letter

1. Be courteous. Remember, by making the request you are imposing on the reader’s time and/or resources.

2. Don’t send an inquiry letter for information you could easily find out by other means, such as with a quick search on the internet.

3. Your letter can be fairly short, but it should be long enough to adequately explain what it is that you are inquiring about and what you want the reader to do in response to your letter.

4. Generally, give at least a couple of weeks for the person, company, or organization to respond to your inquiry before you send a follow-up letter or make a follow-up phone call.

5. If appropriate, you may want to mention that you will keep confidential any information provided. (This may increase the likelihood that the reader will respond to your inquiry.)

6. Make it as easy as possible for the person to respond to your request. This might mean offering to pay for any needed photocopies or mailing costs, or perhaps including a self-addressed, stamped envelope; necessary forms, questionnaires, or other documents; and so forth.

7. Make sure to include contact information so that the person can easily get in touch with you if necessary, such as your cell or home phone number or e-mail address.

8. When the person responds to your inquiry, it is a good idea to send a quick note of thanks expressing your appreciation and telling how the information helped (or can help) you. If appropriate, you may want to offer to return the favor in the future.

How to respond to an inquiry letter:

1) Specifically indicate the inquiry that was made, as you understand it.

2) Express your appreciation for the person’s interest.

3) If possible, personally respond to the inquiry. You might want to include with your response letter any brochures, catalogs, reports, or other helpful information available.

4) If appropriate, clearly describe any action you feel the person should take and the reason(s) for such a recommendation. (However, you may want to use caution because of any possible liability you might incur for offering such advice.)

5) If you cannot personally answer the person’s question, let him/her know that you have contacted the person who can and that he/she will shortly be in touch with the reader. If this is not possible, express your regret for being unable to help the reader, and try to find out for him/her the contact information for someone who can help.

6) If appropriate, you might want to include additional information about your organization, the products or services you sell, or the subject matter of the inquiry, beyond the scope of the original inquiry.

7) Close by saying that you would be happy to help the reader in the future if he/she needs further assistance or by wishing him/her well in his/her endeavor or project, etc.

Inquiry Letter Tips:

1. Begin your letter by stating who you are and giving your status or position (such as student, researcher, interested consumer, etc.), and tell how you found out about the individual or entity that you are writing to.

2. Clearly state what it is that you are inquiring about and what you would like the recipient of your letter to do. Make your inquiry as specific as possible.

3. You might want to briefly explain the purpose of your letter or what you hope to accomplish. Such an explanation may prompt the recipient of your letter to act more quickly.

4. If appropriate, consider mentioning the letter recipient’s qualifications for responding to your inquiry (this may prompt him/her to act when he/she might otherwise be hesitant to do so). For example, you could explain that you are writing to the reader because she is a leader in her field and the accepted authority on the subject you are interested in.

5. Include the date by which you need the information, services, etc., that you are requesting, and indicate that you await the reader’s response.

6. Thank the person for his/her time.

Mr. Zahir Majojo

Internship Coordinator Associated Bank

Jl. MH. Thamrin no.40

Jakarta Selatan, DKI jakarta

Dear Mr. Zahir:

During the Fall Job and Internship Fair at the University of Gunadarma– Depok, I had the opportunity to visit with Rizka Alvine, your College Recruiting Manager. She suggested that I contact you directly to receive more information about your summer internship program.

Through a course on financial institutions, I was exposed to many aspects of commercial banking. This represents a career opportunity that would allow me to combine my interest in finance and my strong interpersonal skills which I have developed through my various work experiences and campus activities. To compliment my academics and present work experience, I would hope to participate in an internship during the summer of 2016.

I would appreciate any information that you could forward to me about your summer internship program. If you have any questions, I can be reached at (081) 883-121211. I look forward to receiving the information and speaking with you soon. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Gege Ramlod
