Dear Girls Inc.,
With an exemplary professional background including vast experience as an executive/personal assistant, I am confident that I have the skills and abilities that make me the right fit for the Executive Assistant position which is currently available with your organization.
As you can see from my resume, I have excellent skills in this arena, most recently as the Executive Assistant and E-Commerce Office Manager for Firstlook, Inc. I wore many hats with this startup and the work showcased my ability to prioritize and coordinate workflow activities, manage internal and external communications, and hire, train, and lead teams of staff. I was very successful in my proactive approach to supporting our senior leaderships with both business and personal needs.
In addition to this experience, I also have several years of experience in providing executive and legal support for two different companies. In these positions I was tasked with a full range of support including calendar and meeting management, travel arrangements, data and records management, and document and report preparation.
I have excellent interpersonal communication skills and work well in challenging situations. I know I would be an asset to your team. I have attached my resume for your review and would appreciate the opportunity of an interview to discuss this position further. I can be reached directly at 214-***-**** or via email at **********@*******.***.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
