Mastermind Marketing
Dear Recruiting Manager:
I am very interested in acquiring a position with Mastermind Marketing. Enclosed is my resume for your consideration.
I am a graduate of the Tourism and Travel and Hotel and Resort Management programs at Sir Sandford Fleming College. Classes included Introductory Computing, Communicating at Work, Customer Service Management, Accounting Fundamentals, Tourism Trends, Supervision, Service Systems Management, Food and Beverage Functions, Front Desk Operations, Housekeeping Operations and other program related courses. I am detail-oriented and conscientious when it comes to my work. I completed my work placement for the Tourism and Travel program at Peterborough & the Kawarthas Tourism and my placement for the Hospitality program was completed at the Super 8 in Peterborough. My work experiences have taught me to interact successfully with the public in a respectful manner and to be a team player. Following graduation, I was recruited by Shady Pines Campground and Mary Morton Tours. Responsibilities included taking tour reservations and answering customer inquiries, completing invoices and receipts and completing proposals and confirmations. I am presently employed at the Staybridge Suites in London and am responsible for checking guests in and out, taking hotel reservations, running Night Audit and other related duties.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to discussing my skills and knowledge in more depth at your earliest convenience. Please leave a message for me at 519-***-****.
Sincerely,
Caitlyn Watson
