Dear Human Resources Department,
This letter is to express my interest in the position that is
available. Based on my extensive customer service skills, I feel that I
have the necessary skills required for the position.
My experience working in customer service has provided me with
excellent people skills and has helped me to establish and maintain
professional business relationships with customers. For the past 6 years, I
have worked for TMS Health, a company that markets pharmaceutical products
and medical procedures. I've dealt with customer concerns on various
medications and developed a reputation for solving their problems by
listening, collecting data and securing information. Being part of TMS
Health has shown me what it's like to work in a team environment and has
helped me to improve my communication skills.
Working in a pharmaceutical environment has also showed me how
important it is to maintain the privacy of customers and their accounts. At
TMS Health, I deal with new customers every day, and at the same time keep
records of long-term patients. I am required to write out manual forms,
verify patient information, and submit Adverse Event reports to the FDA. I
also deal extensively with computer on a daily basis, so I am proficient in
Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. My resume highlights my customer
service and administrative skills, which I believe, will carry over into
this position.
I am excited about the position and the possibility of working for
you. Thank you in advance for your time. Please do not hesitate to contact
me if you have any questions. I would appreciate the opportunity to review
my qualifications in more detail and I hope to hear from you at your
earliest convenience.
