Dear Sir or Madam:
I see you are possibly hiring and I am very interested in working for your company. I am
looking to expanding my knowledge by working in your facility and I feel as though I can
contribute my organizational, team player and customer service skills
I am currently a student taking evening classes at Polk State College to obtain my Bachelor’s
degree. In addition to my education I have acquired a great deal of knowledge about working
with and helping customers through my previous job experiences. Through those jobs I have
learned, multi-tasking, working with others, being a team player, entering data, answering a high
volume of phone calls, tending to customers’ needs in high-stressed situations, filing and
organizing paperwork, assistant managing, event planning and supervising, training new hires,
payroll and billing. But most importantly I have learned how to build trust and relationships with
people. I have been working in customer service for over 5 years. I feel very comfortable and
confident in my skills and realm of knowledge and would be honored if given the chance to
become a part of your team.
Along with this letter, I have enclosed my resume. I look forward to meeting with you to further
discuss my qualifications.
Sincerely,
Mindy Kirkland
