Attention: Manager
Please accept my resume as an application for a position with your organization, your reputation as a quality employer is well known. I know that my previous experience in retail environments as well as my education will make me a valued member of your team.
Over the past 3 years, I have been successfully employed in a sales capacity. In all my sales roles, I have proven myself and met sales targets and business standards related to customer service and work quality.
Previously, I was employed with a large travel service that originated in China before they expanded across Europe and Asia. I was sent for 6 months of training that prepared me to manage a variety of departments; Europe and America became the department under my management.
In addition to my extensive background in sales and customer service, I possess degrees in Business and English Literature. I have always been very ambitious and eager to educate myself to enable me to reach my career goals.
My strengths include working quickly, efficiently and cheerfully under tight deadlines and always being up for a challenge. When I see what needs to be done I am happy to pitch in to complete the task, whether that means working in a team or individually.
I would be happy to start at any position you would be able to offer me at this time and I am confident in my ability to show you just what a great asset I would be to your company.
Thank you for taking the time to review my resume. I would be very excited to have the opportunity to meet with you to discuss my skills and I am available at your convenience. You may contact me at 780-***-**** or email at ************@*******.***
