Dear Sir or Madam:
I am a college graduate with a keen in terest in working within a laboratory
and/or hospital setting. I am also interested in branching out to all aspects of
my career. W hile studying for my bachelor’s degree at Montclair State
U niversity in Biology and Public Health, I gained valuable experience
relevant to all areas of Biology. I did not focus on one particular area because
I wanted a broad background that would serve as a foundation for further on-
the-job t raining upon graduation. Hence, I minored in Public Health.
As you will see in my enclosed resume, I have the educational background,
relevant work experience, and capabilities for a position within the medical,
p harmaceutical or healthcare industry. I hope to work for a company t hat will
a llow me to grow and experience all that I need to as well as work in an
environment in which I hope to excel. I work well with others and learn
quickly. I have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, am well
organized, and pay attention to details. I am motivated by challenges and
work very well in a fast-paced environment. I believe you will find my
abilities an asset to your company or hospital and would appreciate the
opportunity to contribute to your success.
I look forward to meeting with you soon to discuss the opportunities available
and how I can be of service to your future needs. Please do not hesitate to
contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you for taking the time
out to review my application.
Respectfully,
Roshni Patel
