To whom it may concern,
The purpose of this letter is to express my interest in your company. I am a student at University
of Phoenix, currently in the Master of Science in Counseling/ Marriage, Family, and Child
Therapy degree program. I am interested in the job opening I found. I noticed that you are
looking for individuals who can; work well in a team setting, respect clients and families, and
serve as patient advocates. I strongly believe that I am the perfect fit for this position because; I
received my B.S. degree at a school which emphasized the importance of working in groups, in
the military I was taught discipline and respect, and I believe that it is important to represent your
client and your employer in a dignified manner.
I am enclosing my resume with this cover letter which further displays my well build
educational, professional, and volunteer background in the mental health field. As per my
resume, I have helped mentor and counsel individuals from the age of 15 up until now. While I
attended High School, I volunteered with children who suffered from extreme mental illnesses.
After that, I counseled inner city adolescents within Brooklyn, N.Y.
It would be an honor and a privilege to work with you and your fellow staff members at blank
company. You can reach me at aceo35@r.postjobfree.com or 760-***-**** at any time. Thank
