Dear Recruiter,
I am applying for the Pharmacy Technician position posted on Post Job Free.com. I
have enclosed my resume for your consideration.
Graduating, with highest honors and perfect attendance, from UEI College with my
California State registered pharmacy technician license, I earned a 4.0 average while
working full time. I was also the student lab and classroom assistant during this time.
Since graduation, I have worked as an inpatient, a long term care, and a retail pharmacy
technician, in HIV/AIDS, Coumadin and Hepatitis C specialty pharmacies, for a
pharmacy benefits manager, and mail order pharmacy. I have also earned my Certified
Pharmacy Technician license.
With over ten years of progressive experience in the pharmacy field, first as a pharmacy
assistant and now as a Certified Pharmacy Technician, I bring expertise in the areas of
customer service, controlled substances technician, mathematics, filling prescriptions
with accuracy and speed, brand/generic drug names plus flexibility. As a pharmacy
technician for CareerStaff Rx, I enabled the controlled substances pharmacist to allocate
50% of her time to other areas of the pharmacy by preparing, packaging and recording
the controlled substances under her direct supervision. I also showed flexibility in
performing numerous tasks and had perfect attendance. As a pharmacy technician for
Adecco, USA, I received a customer service award for three consecutive years and
received a perfect attendance bonus. I am detail-oriented, customer focused, highly
aware of company needs, and confident I would be a valuable addition to your company.
I look forward to an interview where we can discuss how I can be a contributing member
of your organization and the ability to help your company succeed. I will contact you in
ten days to follow up. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Bonita Ann Freeman, CPhT
