To Whom it May Concern:
I am applying for the position of Admissions Coordinator. I believe I am the ideal candidate for the above-mentioned position. I possess the necessary skills and experience to execute this job properly.
As the founding Concordia University Irvine Diversity Awareness Coordinator, I was in constant contact with students from various backgrounds and places of origin. I interacted with people from many different walks of life on a daily basis. The transition to an Admissions Coordinator will be natural, and an opportunity I gladly seek.
I have four years of experience in assisting students, faculty, and staff. As an English major I am an ideal candidate; I have been educated in such a way that having exceptional verbal and written communication skills, is a natural attribute. My experience as a Concordia Admissions Ambassador is proof of my positive, customer service attitude and the ability to remain calm under pressure. I have worked in multiple capacities in the university atmosphere. I have been told by professors, students, and staff that they appreciate my kind and helpful disposition. I am excellent at sharing information with people in a pleasant and accessible manner. I believe the position of Admissions Coordinator will fit my talents and skills seamlessly. This position will grant me the opportunity to use my natural skills and satisfy my passion for helping students succeed.
Thank you,
