Dear Hiring Manager,

I wish to submit my candidacy for the position of Executive Assistant at

Cleveland Clinic Canada. It is my firm belief that through my education,

previous employment, and relevant personal experiences, I am ideally suited

to this position and would be an asset to your organization.

As an Executive Assistant at National Pharmacy, I worked independently and

with a team to conduct tasks in an efficient manner. I was responsible for

numerous duties including marketing/advertising, creating contracts and

human resources management. I conducted all administrative duties such as

responding to phone calls and emails, monitoring inventory, as well as

maintaining and updating databases and preparing monthly reports. I had to

create an efficient schedule for myself in order to successfully delegate

tasks and meet various deadlines, greatly enhancing my ability to multi-

task and efficiency in time management.

I am very organized individual. I also have experience with Human

Resources, screening resumes and conducting interviews. I was responsible

for managing schedules and meetings for several people within an

organization. I completed presentations and documents, and edited Policy

and Procedure Manuals amongst other documents. I was also responsible for

conducting meetings, taking minutes, making employee travel arrangement and

agendas. I conducted research and surveys and was responsible for scoring

and writing reports.

My client service experience has equipped me with well-developed

interpersonal and communication skills that I can bring to any job. In my

previous jobs, I encountered different types of people and situations that

challenged my problem solving and conflict resolution abilities, as such, I

became comfortable working in environments where demanding client

interactions is required and learned to tackle these situations with

versatility while maintaining a client-centre approach at all times.

I believe that my education, work experience and skills have given me the

tools upon which I can build upon. I assure you that I will bring energy

and dedication to your team, work as diligently as possible. Thank you for

taking the time to review my qualifications for this position. I look

forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Sarabibi Patel
