If you're referring to Wieden then let me just save you the trouble. It ain't happening unless you get into their internship program or are our Lord and saviour jesus himself.

Step 1, email letter head should read :“Available talent” for a better reception.

Step 2, your body can be short and brief : “My name is _____, I’m a [insert tertiary school] graduate, i just completed my internship at_______ and am eager to find out if I can become a contributing member of your prestigious agency. Please find my CV/Portfolio attached.

Kindest Regards,
______

Step 3, don’t forget to attach your CV/Portfolio (preferably as a PDF).
