GAOtek

Toronto, ON

To whom it may concern:

I am in my third year at Memorial University completing my Bachelor of Business Commerce. Please accept my application for the position with the GAOtek I was drawn to this position after reading the description advertised under ca.indeed. Based on my skills and knowledge, I feel I would be very fitting for this position and would be a great asset to your team. I am a very outgoing individual and enjoy working in diverse groups as well as individual work. I am always looking to expand my knowledge in the business field and in everyday life. I am looking forward to a new opportunity to excel and grow as an individual and within an organization. While working as a Lifeguard for the City of St. John’s I have been in many situations that require forward thinking, problem solving, leadership and teamwork. As a lifeguard our main priority is to ensure the safety of those using the facility. There have been many times when unexpected events have taken a turn and I had to think of a solution quickly and effectively, using the help of my co-workers. I am trained to work in teams as well as take on responsibilities and tasks on my own. We are very diverse group and tend to all kinds of people. Your company particularly stood out to me as I am particularly interested in working in the Human Resource, communication, and marketing field. My resume has outlined my experience and skills which I will carry with me in my future careers. I hope you can take some time to review it. I am very interested in this position and look forward to hearing from you in the future. Sincerely,

Emma Matthews
