Dear Hiring Manager,

Please find enclosed my CV in application for the career opportunity advertised.

I strongly believe that the robust nature of my Bachelor of Arts degree, attained at the University of the Witwatersrand, has equipped me with a wide range of transferrable skills which would make me a valuable addition to your company. Majoring in the social sciences has given me the opportunity to get involved in in-depth independent research, which requires initiative, analytical thinking and the ability to propose solutions. My degree has also given me the capacity to embrace and understand diversity, a skill which I consider to be of utmost importance when working in a team. This skill was put to the test when I was a volunteering in the Human Resources Section of the Department of Education. My service as a volunteer taught me the importance of communicating my ideas with confidence and to respect opposing opinions. In addition to working in teams, I am more than capable of taking a leadership position. Being a class representative and a coordinator for most of the group projects undertaken in the courses I studied at the University of the Witwatersrand has helped develop my leadership skills; I am well organized and I pay close attention to the quality of work produced.

My extensive part-time work experience in the service industries, retail sector and administration environments has not only helped hone my communication skills, but has taught me the skill of managing my time effectively. My role as a Human Resource intern at Godrej Consumer Products, a well-renowned competitor in the FMCG industry, has given me practical experience in the field of HR. I am, therefore, confident that I will be of great assistance to your organization.

I am an energetic, trustworthy and conscientious individual with a keen eye for detail. Reflected in my academic transcript is a person who has not allowed difficult times to pressure her into giving up. Rather, my academic journey at the University of the Witwatersrand is a clear indication of a self-disciplined and self-motivated individual who takes responsibility for the roles/tasks appointed to her. My passion for my degree has been a constant motivator to work hard. My willingness to adapt to change makes it easy for me to acquire new skills by learning from others. And as such, I have confidence that I will be an asset to your company.

Thank you for taking the time to consider this application and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Yours sincerely

Mpine Selebogo
