To Whom It May Concern:
Please consider me as a valuable addition to your company. During the ten years with my current
employer, I have performed a wide variety of job duties. Working closely with our Engineering
Department has enabled me to help improve many aspects of our product line. Coordinating with the
Plant Manager has given me experience in planning and executing multiple tasks to ensure a smooth
flow of product through the facility.
In addition to the experience I have obtained with my current employer, I have experience in retail,
including inventory management and Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. While working in
a retail environment, I developed excellent interpersonal skills, to provide the best customer service
possible.
For several reasons (including career opportunities and better weather), I have decided to relocate to
Raeford, North Carolina. I will be moving this summer, having secured housing which will become
available between late June and early July. To ensure a smooth transition, I will be staying in Raeford
from May 25-29 to allow me to schedule job interviews.
After you have had an opportunity to review my resume, I look forward to answering any questions
you may have. Although unable to answer phone calls during work hours, I check my voicemail
during breaks and return calls as quickly as possible. Please email me at ************@*****.*** or
call me at 716-***-**** to schedule an interview. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
John T. Calhoun
