Please consider my application for the position of corporate communications technical writer listed on postjobsfree.com. I am a talented content writer and a great candidate for the job.

I write detailed product descriptions for etrailer.com. I quickly make sense of technical information with an ability to break difficult material down into simple terms. I also work on layout, photo clarity, and the overall appearance of each product page.

I collaborate with editors and upper management to review our web style. I actively engage in group projects, and make constructive suggestions for improvement. I have proven to be resourceful for other departments, and work hard at moving information forward rather than bouncing it back and forth. Further, I am my own project manager, and prioritize my tasks effectively while still being a great resource of information for others.

I am the primary contact person for over thirty of our vendors, and am well organized, reliable, and quick to respond to their requests. I keep an eye on sales trends, and know which products and vendors are most successful.

I have always been an A student, and am willing to learn new skills. I meet challenges head on, which is how I earned an A in Calculus. I have critical reading and writing skills that I acquired during my undergraduate studies. An English instructor at UMSL was impressed enough to hand me a project to edit art museum transcripts on a very strict deadline. This was for the art department, and I was paid for my work.

My previous work experience includes being a massage therapist at an elite day spa. I successfully built a massage business in a goal-oriented environment, and my customer service skills are top notch.

Thank you for considering me for employment. I can be reached at 314-***-****, and would be happy to provide references. I look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

Shelly Kammerlohr
