Dear [Recipient]:

I wanted to write a cover letter to explain my situation. I had attended college early in life and obtained an Administrative Aide Certificate. I have had numerous jobs being I was in the construction field for most of my life. I did a lot of temporary and contract jobs. I have been disabled since March of 2014. I had a major back surgery in July of 2017. It took me a while to recover, but then I started back to work in October of 2018. I worked a few months at a convenience store for a friend of mine. I then knew I was ready to return to the work life. I worked as an Executive Administrative Assistant for about 7 months. I decided that I needed to take a few refresher courses in Microsoft Office. When I contacted the college to inquire about classes the advisor told me that I had a lot of credits that would transfer and could get an associate degree. I have chosen to take this route being that I only need 21 credits for a degree in Business Technology. I have been enrolled about 4 weeks now but I am doing really well. I should graduate in April of 2021. I have a lot of experience in payroll, accounting, human resource and even a little medical experience. If given the opportunity I could succeed and do a great job. My children are grown of course, so I have minimal reasons to miss work or anything that would interfere with my job. I am in good in health. I finished my fall semester with a GPA of 3.66. My spring semester will be taking payroll accounting, principles of marketing, college algebra, and economics. I will graduate on May 14, 2020.

I would like to be considered for this position. I can come in for an Interview anytime. I can work full time being that all my classes are online for this semester.

Sincerely,

Donna Lee Ford
