Hello,
Please accept this letter and my resume as my application for your consideration as a full-time employee.
As evidenced by my attached resume, I am a very dynamic individual with experience in the areas of law, administration, psychology, and customer service. All of which I believe taken altogether are important assets to be able to offer your organization.
More specifically, areas that I have experience in which I believe would be beneficial are my strong capabilities in multi-tasking, conflict resolution, budgeting, and administrative organization. I am a people person and a team player who is extremely motivated and comfortable with taking direction and working with others or on my own. Also, I am reliable, motivated, and have strong if not exceptional organizational, research skills, oral, written communication skills, an eye for detail, as well as a very strong work ethic.
Therefore, should you wish to meet with me to discuss what I deem a very exciting opportunity, or require additional information and references, please do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience.
Yours very truly,
Angela Ziebarth
