To whom it may concern,
I am very excited to read about the administrative position, which is available. I have worked in a professional office environment for 5 plus years. Let me assure you that once employed with your company, you will find my experiences in office administration have fully equipped me with a plethora of tasks including office management, business operations, and exemplary customer service. I am confident that my application of these tasks and many other skills that I possess would be an asset for your company. I realize that in today’s society it is hard to find employees that have the skills and tasks that I acquire. I am fluent both in English and in Spanish.
My resume reflects my work history, however, it is not able to show you my personal attributes that set me apart from other candidates that are also seeking to fulfill this position. My positive attitude allows me to make the best out of a negative situation, resulting in effective solutions, I am exceptionally organized, I have an eye for detail, and my personable nature give me the ability to work well under pressure.
I strongly believe that my experiences and expertise would be a good match for organization. I appreciate the opportunity to meet with you and discuss my qualifications further. I have enclosed my resume for review.
Thank you for consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Claudette Guerrero
