To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to you. Enclosed please find my resume, which briefly summarizes a progressing and stable employment history within the staffing / recruiting industry.
Below is a list highlighting my strengths that I believe would be an asset to your organization:
Ability to motivate and lead a team to consistently reach or exceed goals.
Strong managerial and organizational skills.
Can effectively communicate with individuals on all levels.
Committed to quality and improvement.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
