Dear Sir or Madam:
My objective is to work in customer-oriented industries where building and maintaining
relationships with customers, old and new, are the primary focus.
I have been in the workforce sporadically over the past 10 years, taking time to raise my
children, while keeping abreast of the latest trends in technology. By doing so, the
learning curve in any new work environment has been short, thus allowing for an easy
transition from a new employee to a contributing member of the team.
With regard to my qualifications, they are both varied and enriching. To highlight
varying aspects of customer service that I have been involved in:
• CRM/MRP/ERP based order entry/fulfillment & inventory management
environments
• International and domestic account management & customer service
• Coordinating with vendors, production planners & manufacturing facilities to
expedite time-sensitive shipment
• Working with consolidation centers & logistics facilities for full & partial release
of shipment
• Export documentation, proforma invoices, samples, warranty & credit issues
• In-home design consultations, quotations, 2D and 3D custom design renderings
for clients
• Finding a happy medium between home buyers wants and needs
• Front office and administrative experience with both phone and in-person
customer interaction
My experience with customers on various levels has taught me that anticipating needs,
building rapport, earning trust and loyalty from clients are essential in all aspects of
customer-oriented industries, whether in real estate, design, retail or manufacturing.
Given my intermittent work, my salary range is negotiable, but I would be happy to start
at $35,000/year. It will be my pleasure to discuss my qualifications, work experience and
salary expectations with you.
With best regards,
Nandini Chakraborty
