RE: LEAD COOK
Good morning,
Currently at the threshold of my career with a Culinary Art Certificate, I have been researching restaurant of interest that I feel would be a good fit for my professional interests. Therefore, I am very interested in joining your business as a Lead Cook.
I realize you will need to know why you should consider me as a suitable candidate. For this reason, I have enclosed my resume for your review as the first step in the application process. I would also contribute skilled professionalism if given the opportunity to join your innovative team.
In my last position as a Lead Cook/Kitchen Manager I have worked independently with little or no supervision, as well as assisted staff and co-workers with performing their duties. In addition, I have analyzed and examined situations and responded appropriately. I have also provided supervision and guidance for co-workers while writing daily reports on detail food standards. Furthermore, I have established and kept two-way working relationships with co-workers, staff and customers.
I would greatly appreciate the opportunity of speaking with you personally at your earliest convenience, and explain on how I can meet your organizational needs. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Frank J. Dean SR.
