To Whom It May Concern,

I want to start by saying please don’t just move on to another applicant due to my age.… I would be a perfect fit for this job. I am older than most applicants but just meet me and then decide. No, I have no degree but I have years of experience in HR. I have been in charge of hiring, training, supervising as well as customer service. I am good on the phone and a great communicator. I have been in Management for most of my life and understand what is needed. Please see my photo on LinkedIn

Please consider the attached resume as my interest in the position available with your firm. I would like the opportunity to work where my customer service and sales background can be useful. I have been maintaining my web site… handled all phone and e-mail correspondence for years. I am friendly, honest and easy to work with as well as being a quick learner.

I bring many years of expertise supervising a sales force and enjoy working with people. I pride myself on having a good rapport with customers and have a great customer service track record. My office administrative skills are detailed in my resume. If you are looking for a hard worker, dependable with a good work ethic I’m your girl.

I am a resident of Folsom with over 20 years of experience and expertise in the housing and building industries specializing in working with seniors as a Realtor and as a Loan Officer.
