Data Entry, customer service, sales (inside, outside, cold calling)

To whom it may concern,

My name is Benjamin Lukas Reid. I am a go-getter! My strongest skills are those having to do with public service. I have served in the public sector in many different capacities as listed on my resume. I very much enjoy and thrive on working with the public as I have a very sunny personality and enjoy a challenge.

I consider myself an extremely strong problem-solver and am also a creative minded person. I very much enjoy being part of a team and can communicate effectively with all different kinds of people. I’m a good negotiator and can navigate challenging situations. I enjoy helping to build teams and encouraging the members to communicate with each other in a very positive way. I am an excellent communicator, a gifted writer and communicate well with individuals from every walk of life.

I enjoy focusing on the details of every project and am very service oriented. I especially enjoy work that is intellectually challenging with a high level of responsibility. You can depend on me to get the work done in a timely manner and in a spirit that helps bring people and teams closer together.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or need additional information.

Many thanks,

Ben Reid
