Director of Human Resources,
As you can see from my resume, I have been in dentistry for my full adult life. I went into dentistry knowing nothing, to becoming an imperative role in every office and position I’ve worked in. I started at the bottom and worked my way to the top. I learned to do every position in the dental field. I am telling you this, to show you that I am an eager and fast learner. I love to learn new things and I love to help people. I work very well in a team oriented situation or as a self starter with no supervision. I am not scared to take on new things, but instead, welcome it as a challenge. I am detail oriented and pride myself on a job well done. I am a punctual and dependable person. I work hard and get any job given, done in a timely manner.
I have been an administrative assistant, doing all forms of office duties, customer service, reports and deposits. I currently have a job as a dental assistant and am eager to move into a field of work that I can serve others and retire in. I do hope you will consider me for this administrative assistant position. I assure you, you will be very pleased you did. I will be a decision that will make you happy and you will never regret.
Thank you,
Fonda Anders
