To whom it may concern:
In my current position as a Financial Representative with Northwestern Mutual, I call individuals and
businesses to schedule appointments to discuss their financial goals and objectives, analyze their current
financial plan and make recommendations to provide them financial security. I have had extensive
experience through this position in prospecting, cold-calling and networking to generate new leads. I have
worked one-on-one with families, individuals and business owners to help them achieve their financial
goals.
In serving as a School Board Director at Claysburg Kimmel School District, I evaluate an $11 million
dollar budget, conduct interviews, implement and enforce school district policies. I am tasked to make
decisions and vote on various things while keeping the districts mission, vision and specific goals and
objectives in mind.
I worked as a mason for 6 years after graduating high school; where I learned the value of hard-work. I
advanced from a laborer to mason, and from mason to foreman. As I looked for the ability to grow it was
evident that I needed to change career paths and further my education, leading me to start my secondary
education at Saint Francis University in 2010.
I am an extremely proficient and effective communicator and leader. I am driven to be the best at
everything that I do. I am professional and I will be a great addition to your organization.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Jeremy R. Knott
