To whom it may concern,
My name is Alfred Mele Jr. and I am enclosing this letter along with my resume to introduce myself.
A large portion of my career has been in the transportation industry. However, being an owner of a small company has required me to have experiences in many diverse areas. Communication is key, as well as timing and being sensitive to the needs of customers and their concerns. I am mostly hands-on but also able to delegate the necessary work load to get the job done. Being hands-on required not only handling office duties; Sales calls, customer intervention, appointments, etc. but the shop and service end as well. Repairs required were electrical, electronic and mechanical. Having developed these traits along with an analytical aptitude and an organizational framework helped greatly in the ventures I have undertaken.
I thank you for your time and consideration and look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Alfred Mele Jr. Alfred Mele Jr.
