To whom this may concern:
I am submitting my resume for consideration for the position of Office Assistant with MPIQC.
I was previously employed at Aultsville Theatre, Canadian Blood Services and Farm Boy Fresh Market as a Box Office Clerk, Payroll Clerk/Coordinator and Administrative Assistant and I believe that the skills and experiences I have gained in these positions make me an ideal candidate for the position.
My first job in this field was at Farm Boy Fresh Market in Cornwall as Receptionist then quickly moved into the position of Accts Payable Clerk then as a Payroll Clerk. These positions required a high level of organization, focus and attention to details. My skills then brought me to Canadian Blood Services in Ottawa where I was a Payroll Co-ordinator. After re-locating to Cornwall I then started volunteering at Aultsville Theatre and within a year was offered the position of Head Usher and Administrative Assistant to the Theatre Director. My excellent interpersonal, computer and superior communication skills earned the confidence of the Director where I was able to work independently and with little supervision.
I have a good working knowledge of the duties and responsibilities of an Office Assistant, am highly motivated and work well in a team and/or independently and I believe that I would be a great asset to your company. I would be happy to meet with you at your earliest convenience and discuss why I would be an excellent choice for the position.
Thank you for your time and consideration and look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Patricia Lloyd
