Dear Hiring Manager

It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my application for the advertised available position. As a well- rounded candidate, with almost ten years’ working experience, I know my diverse skills and qualifications will make me an asset to your team.

As you will see from the attached resume, I’ve built my career in a variety of roles and industries, mostly in small companies where I was not just the admin but also gatekeeper, technology whiz, bookkeeper and marketing guru. I’m not only used to wearing many hats, I sincerely enjoy it; I thrive in an environment where no two work days are exactly the same.

In addition to being flexible and responsive, I’m also a fanatic for detail – particularly when it comes to presentation and deliberation. I have also proven myself through obtaining new business development opportunities from abroad. I believe in applying this same level of attention to detail to tasks as visible as prepping the materials for a top-level meeting and as mundane as making sure the copier never runs out of paper.

I regard myself as a friendly person. I enjoy interacting with people. I am hard working and enjoy taking on and completing new challenges. My strongest points are my ability to adapt to various environments, ability to work long hours, honesty, sense of responsibility and eagerness to complete all tasks given to me. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Warmest regards,

Kaela Shauni Houston
