Dear Madam / Sir,
I submit this letter and attached resume to inform you that I am searching for a career opportunity in
health care administration and management. I have following qualifications and experience to
perform the duties of such a position.
I will be completing my MBA in healthcare management from Davenport University, Michigan in
coming December. My GPA is 4/4. My core MBA courses have focused on managerial accounting,
analysis and financial management. The healthcare courses focus on structure of healthcare
organizations; medical practice management; financial and strategic healthcare management; and
the ethical/legal perspective of healthcare.
I have 4 years of experience as a casualty medical officer at public and private hospitals in Pakistan.
My responsibilities ranged from treating and admitting patients to managing the paramedical staff
and supplies at the casualty department. I also have 8 years of experience in product management
and medical research at national and multinational pharmaceutical firms. As a product manager, I
have developed and executed marketing plans; prepared financial and promotional budgets; and
monitored ROI. As a researcher, I have collected, analyzed, and presented medical data to
customers (doctors and pharmacists) about the latest neurology, psychiatry, and oncology
treatments.
My strengths include accuracy, high attention to detail, working under pressure, meeting deadlines
and leading multidisciplinary teams. I have consistently earned academic honors and have always
performed my duties with commitment and maturity. I will bring these same strengths to your
respected organization.
I look forward to an interview where we can further discuss about what I have to bring to your
team. Please contact me at 248-***-**** or via Email **********@*****.*********.*** .
Sincerely,
