Re: Application for Graphic Designer

Dear Hiring Manager,

I'm applying for the Graphic Designer position at Mondhaus Brands. I design brand systems that other people can ship with — the Figma system I built at Nordlicht Studio is used daily by three product teams and twelve engineers — and your portfolio of consumer brands is exactly where that systems mindset pays off.

Recent work I'm proud of: a five-market fintech rebrand that cut asset production time 40%, quarterly launch campaigns spanning web, motion, and print, and an email template redesign that lifted click-through 27%. My portfolio at lenapetrova.design shows the range.

I'd love to walk you through two or three projects and hear where design can push your brands next. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Lena Petrova

Why this letter works

It opens with the match, not a biography

The first paragraph names the role and immediately connects the candidate's strongest proof to it. No 'I am writing to express my interest' filler.

Every claim carries a number

The middle paragraph re-uses the resume's best quantified achievements. Hiring managers treat numbers as evidence and adjectives as noise.

It closes with a specific, low-pressure ask

A short request for a conversation — confident, polite, and done in under 250 words, because recruiters skim letters even faster than resumes.

Pair it with the matching resume
