The Manager
Dear Sir/ Madam:
Attached herewith is my CV for your perusal.
As a background, I have a degree in Accountancy and my initial work experiences are with the Banking and Finance Industry. My experiences in this field has brought out the meticulous side in me and to this day, I consider it as one of my essential traits. However, Banking and Finance Industry can be a cut- throat turf and it takes real determination and interest to stay on top, not considering the long hours spent to be in it.
I am a fairly competitive individual but also believes in attaining the proper work-life balance. Thus, my choice to move to an Administrative field arose due to my need to have a semblance of a normal work-life environment.
For the last 6 years, I have been working in Admin related positions as evidenced in my detailed CV. In those years, I have adapted a very strong organization skills and demonstrated a number of competencies that were essential to the role I am tasked to do. I am adept at problem- solving, including the ability to identify issues and resolve them in a timely manner. I have strong interpersonal skills and can easily relay well with others. I can clearly communicate, both written and orally, with the people I work with, as well as to external clients we cater to. I am able to prioritize and plan work activities to efficiently use my time. I am organized, thorough and produces quality work. I am dependable, able to follow instructions, responds to management directions and accepts feedback graciously, particularly if it will be to improve my performance at work.
I am a big believer of working smartly rather than working hard. If you have carefully planned your day and prioritize important tasks firsthand, instead of working long hours, you can accomplish what you have set to do within the set work schedule. My personal details are included in the CV as well as my contact information. If you think I am well suited for the job, please call me at your convenience and we can set a time to meet and further discuss the position.
Thank you and have a great day!
Yours sincerely,
Leslie Jali Jali
