To whom it may concern:
With my professional work experience and strong educational background, I am eager to
join a team that wants to add to its Human Resources and organizational strengths. To that
kind of opportunity I can bring...
A Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration... a minor
in economics...special study in Management, Human Resources
Management and Industrial Relations...proven ability to achieve long-
term goals...a fair and responsive attitude toward a diverse range of
company personnel.
In today’s business world, it is crucial that companies have talented Human Resources
professionals. To excel, each individual of a professional team must see his or her part as
decisive to the team’s overall success and should perform accordingly. If this point of view
becomes the overall course of action, the whole organization benefits and its excellence
shows. This is the way in which I approach my assignments and my work relationships.
I have worked hard to acquire an education and build up a background of professional
experience in Human Resources. No task or assignment is too small or too large, and I
apply myself to any project with equal dedication. I strive to be successful, either as a good
team member or an individual worker. If you are looking for someone to help you create
excellence, I belong on your team.
Enclosed is my resume. If you see my strengths as a valuable addition to your team and its
approach, I would be glad to meet and discuss in more detail your requirements and my
qualifications.
Sincerely,
Lisa M. Rautenberg
