Dear Recruiter:

My name is Priscilla Adjei, and I am interested

in a position within your organization as Program Manager for the Health

Division. I graduated from Georgia State University gaining a M.S. in

Exercise Science specializing in Fitness and Health Promotion. I also have

a B.S. in Physical Education specializing in Exercise Science from The

College of Charleston. I am experienced in corporate health and wellness,

biometric screenings, academic advising, teaching, sales, nutrition,

personal training, health coaching/promotion, and fitness

assessments/exercise prescription for diabetic, cardiac, and pulmonary

patients. I am currently a Lead Clinical Specialist for Nova Biomedical

and health educator for other companies conducting health seminars. I am

also a Team Lead for biometric screenings. As a lead trainer, I travel in

the NE area, and I am also in charge of Go Lives and ensuring everything

runs smoothly throughout the implementation process. In the past, I have

also taught classes for ECG technicians and conducted training for company

interns.

As a trustworthy worker, you can rely on me to be very hard working,

versatile, and able to complete multiple tasks in a time efficient manner.

I have the innate ability to learn quickly and train others in a manner

that will allow them to be able to perform at optimal levels. I am very

honest and know that I will be a great addition to your team. I am team

oriented and highly professional at all times in order to provide an ideal

representation of the company name that you have established over the

years. I am a strong leader because I have excellent communication skills

and work well with people of any socio-economic and cultural background. I

would greatly appreciate the opportunity to learn more about this position

and possibly working with you. My salary requirements are negotiable, and I

am able to start immediately. Thank you in advance for your time and

consideration.

`

Cordially,

Priscilla Adjei
