Dear Human Resources,

During my accounting career, I have had the opportunity to work for several industries. I have

experience in oil and gas, law firms, transportation, construction, restaurants, insurance, non-

profits, and agriculture. I have performed all functions necessary to account for any business. I

am a fast learner, and I enjoy a challenge. I have dealt with leadership of employees that I hired,

as well with leadership of staff hired through the companies I served. I have Bachelors in

accounting, and a Master’s in Education. I am a CPA candidate. I believe I am an awesome

employee. I never call in sick. I am 15 minutes early. I am willing to fill any role necessary. I am

a great choice in a visual position, and have great communication skills, attention to detail,

follow through, and dedication.

I currently live in Carlsbad, NM. I would like an opportunity to relocate to Texas. If offered a

job, I can report after filling a two weeks’ notice with my current employer.

Thank you,

Melisa A. Lindsay
