To the hiring manager,
Thank you for taking the time to review my resume. My name is Melanie and I have recently completed a 35 hour business analysis development course, my IIBA ECBA certification, and the beginner and advanced google analytics courses, with plans to continue my studies and gain my PMI-PBA, CSM, and PMP certifications in the future. I am very interested in an opportunity within your organization to gain the experience and knowledge needed to expand my career. I believe with the knowledge I have already procured and my dedication to furthering my skills, I would be a great fit for your company.
I realize you are looking for a candidate with strong written and oral skills, as well as experience with gathering requirements, analyzing data, and communicating between the client and development team. In my past experiences as an operations manager, I have been responsible for discovering needs, creating a plan, determining any potential risks, and implanting said plan. As stated above, I have recently completed training for a business analyst position, and in that program I authored various documents during a case study that would be used in real-life scenarios. You will find examples of these documents at the end of my resume if you would like to look through them to see what I am capable of creating.
With a combination of my real world experience, my knowledge of many business analyst methodologies, and my drive to grow and learn, I am confident that I can produce the needed deliverables and be a strong business analyst for your project. I appreciate your time, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Best,
Melanie Mogen
