Application Letter
The resume alludes to my past 5 years’ experience as an effective Administrator/Frontline Receptionist/Personal Assistant or Secretary where I have been responsible for a wide range of duties including general office admin secretarial duties, public relations, business and client communications. My co-workers and managers will attest to my efficiency, quality customer services and strong organizational skills. In short I get a lot done in a qualitative and fast manner, ensuring the overall operations of the office run as smoothly as successfully as possible.
Taking charge of your working space and maintaining your efficiency and accuracy is a task that seems overwhelming to many but because of my strong organizational skills. I never fall behind and some of my colleagues in my office always say I make it look easy and it is a good feeling to know that everyone appreciates how I keep the office functioning effectively.
I reside in Port Elizabeth but I am willing to travel or even relocate to anywhere as I am not area bound and have accommodation in most of the Eastern Cape area. I am currently working at Sanlam at the moment and I am available as soon as you want me.
I have excellent interpersonal and communications skills and a pleasant manner. My track record demonstrates my ability to meet strict deadlines without compromising on quality and my positive and enthusiastic manner.
I would like to extend my experience and skills and believe that I would be an ideal fit for your company.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely
Ntombizodwa Tonono
