Dear [Recipient Name]:

It was a pleasure to see you at the [Organization Name] meeting last week. It has been far too long since we’ve talked to each other. I was pleased to hear that things are going well for you and that you are happy in your new job. I can only hope to find a job that I enjoy as much as you enjoy yours.

I truly appreciate your generous offer to assist in my job search. I have enclosed my resume for your review. As you will see, I have several years of experience as a [job title]. While I have enjoyed my work, I am now interested in taking on greater challenges and responsibilities. To that end, I am searching for a position as a [job title].

Please forward my resume to any friends or colleagues who are looking for an employee with my education and experience.

I will call you next week. In the meantime, please let me know if you have any suggestions to aid in my job search, and thanks again for your help.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
