RE: Senior Executive Assistant, Dulles, VA

Dear Sir or Madam:

Please allow the attached resume to merit your careful consideration during

your search for a professional Executive Assistant candidate for the

referenced opportunity.

Why would I be the ideal candidate for the available position? First, I

embody all the attributes which you outline in your job description and

more than fulfill the qualifications that you seek like not staying on the

porch, having a cape to leap tall buildings, nicknamed "Radar" like the

M.A.S.H. character, and not only can ice the cake - I can bake it too.

Being a career EA partner means the world to me because I sincerely love

what I do and managing a busy executive's office (life) is a very rewarding

challenge. The best feeling in the world is staying 3 steps ahead of your

partner so that he or she is constantly prepared for meetings, travel, etc,

and they can focus on running and growing the company.

Second, my multitasking and organizational skills are exemplary as my

resume reflects many facets of my history working for executives in

diversified, global industries as both a career executive assistant and an

office administrator. My ability to work effectively in various dynamic

environments with a great deal of flexibility and diplomacy has enabled me

to establish productive working relationships with personalities from every

walk of life. My personal traits are that of an extrovert who

enthusiastically welcomes challenge and strives to achieve high goals, both

personally and professionally. My strong customer service skills and work

ethic continue to serve me well especially when a great deal of tact and

finesse are required to find mutually beneficial solutions to seemingly

impossible problems.

Lastly, to work with a successful team would be a privilege where I can

offer a high degree of creativity, the initiative to get the job done, the

ability to make work not only fun, but a healthy learning experience. This

resume, however, cannot reflect my ability to prioritize work where

deadlines are met well in advance, to understand the scope and urgency in

managing a successful C-Level executive office, to think fast on my feet,

stay calm in a crisis, and always act with discretion. Nor can the resume

reflect my superior organizational skills, attention to detail, and

dedication to create the highest quality work.

Personally, I'm basically a happy, confident, optimistic person who

possesses a non-judgmental, forward-thinking attitude with a very healthy

sense of humor. Altogether, even with my perfectionist tendencies, you

have one dynamic worker who isn't afraid to get her hands dirty to achieve

goals. I hope to have the opportunity to demonstrate these attributes

during a personal interview and to discuss your need for a solid performing

professional in this integral partnership role.

Bringing my wealth of experience and knowledge to work as your executive's

EA partner would be a fabulous opportunity! My varied career in Virginia

has resulted in HR recruitment into new companies where I was sought due to

my reputation. Each role added a new skill set and put my considerable

talents to the test - I've relished each highly visible opportunity and

flourished. Multiple positive letters of reference are available for

review.

Thank you very much for your consideration. I may be reached at (703) 753-

1367 or via email at either abhlvv@r.postjobfree.com.

Respectfully,

Tami S. Kramer
