Dear Human Resource Dept:
I am looking for an opportunity to get out of the home improvement
business. I discovered the position available in the Sioux City market on
the Internet. Please find attached a copy of my current resume.
My experiences at F.W. Woolworth Company were the foundation I used to
build my career. I completed an intense two year training program which
prepared me in customer service, working with others, training and
supervising at many levels of management.
Managing a National Parts Store was a great energetic, fast paced
experience. I was in charge of all store operations. I always gave the
best customer service, the best training to my team, and made sure
inventory was in line with sales and demand.
I have also had the opportunity to own my own business. With this
experience I really grew and completely respect a company's budget and
bottom line.
If you would like to talk further about this or any opportunities, I would
be happy to arrange time to visit with you on the phone or in person. I
look forward to discussing this position with you further. Thank you for
your consideration.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey F. Gothier
