Dear HR Professional,

I am currently living in Dubai and I have applied for my Permanent Residency, working with a wonderful law firm in Canada, who have confirmed that I am now in the government pool, waiting to receive my Invitation to Apply. Receiving a job offer from an organization in Canada would allow me to apply for my Canadian Work Permit which takes 1-2 weeks, being a good time frame as my current organization requires a 30 day notice period for resignation. I am eagerly wanting to start a life in Canada and a job in your esteemed organization would be the key to starting the life I am aiming for. With regards to 'fitting in' in Canada, I already have friends and family living in Mississauga, making my transition into work a much quicker and easier process so I can contribute my full potential.

I would be more than happy to even have a Skype interview if you would like to further assess my skills and experience.

Experience wise I have nearly two and a half years of experience in Hellmann Worldwide Logistics, working in both Transportation and Contract Logistics which has given me an incredible amount of hands on knowledge and experience throughout the entire supply chain and freight forwarding industry on a global scale. Working in Dubai, one of the highest demanding, intensely competitive logistics markets globally, has enhanced some of my skills like strong flexibility, agile response to situations which require critical thinking, superior customer service levels with a strong focus on customer needs and enhanced attention to detail to create efficiency in operations to minimize costs and maximize resouce utlization, giving me the edge in the market. To back up my experience, I have attained my Master’s Degree in Supply Chain Management (2 years) and my Bachelor's Degree in Business Management (4 years), both from highly reputed universities here in the U.A.E. I highly appreciate you taking out the time to read this mail. Looking forward to your response and advice! With Best Regards,

Karan Bachani
