Dear Hiring Manager:
I would like to express my interest in a position with your company. I currently work with my husband, Mark, as an Administrative Assistant to aid in protecting families with Life, Disability and Long Term Care Insurance through the Knights of Columbus. I have worked with my husband in many capacities since 2003. I am a dedicated Homeschooling mother of two children. I have been a caregiver for my mother for the last 5 years, who just recently moved to a more suitable residence.
I feel that my children are now at an age that I can reenter the work force outside of my husband’s business. He is currently seeking new employment opportunities that do not take away so much of his personal family time.
I would be most grateful for the opportunity to interview for this position. Please find enclosed a copy of my resume. I will be glad to provide any additional information that you may need. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Jennifer McKnett
