Motivational letter
I am writing this motivational letter in hope that I will be successful in obtaining this job position as a cash processor
The reason I believe I deserve this job had all started during the year 2014. In June of that year, my father passed away suddenly due to a heart attack, at that time I was twelve years old, this left me very saddened as my father was my motivation to work hard and become an independent woman. It was after the death of my father, my mother, sister and I was faced with a court battle by my father's brother. This court battle is regarding our home. We are still currently facing this battle; this has now put my mother under severe financial challenges. Due to the circumstances, we are currently facing civil matters, legal costs and as well as going through this process emotionally whilst also watching my family struggling to obtain the funds to pay the legal representatives as well as seeing the law not lessening the burden on my mother who has to be both parents to my sister and I and still face this legal challenges.The struggle I am currently facing has motivated me to work hard, study hard and to make myself and both my parents proud. I am a friendly, polite, and honest person who is openminded to new ideas and influences. My curious nature allows me to be eager to learn new things. I love to be involved in group projects; this allows me to showcase my skills as a good communicator.
I am also very confident as well as outspoken. I am not afraid of challenges; I see them rather as opportunities to motivate and to grow myself in the work force. I am hardworking and independent; I believe that hard work is the key to success. I am always passionate and persistent when performing a task.
I am always punctual as well as neat and tidy. I fulfil my responsibilities and tasks to the best of my capability as well as according to the time frame given.
I am constantly trying to better myself and to not let the experiences and challenges that I am facing thus far to demotivate me for an example: attending court with my mother on a regular basis to fight for what is rightfully ours. In hindsight this experience is teaching me the realities of the harsh and competitive world that awaits me but I believe that I have evolved and have become a strong minded, confident and positive human being who will always overcome whatever obstacles life shall throw in my way. This experience that I have been facing has not deterred me in any way from achieving success in my future In fact this has actually been the main reason behind me wanting to work hard and to become an independent woman.
To conclude I would like to say I will be extremely grateful and I assure you that I will do my outmost best to meet your expectations. I shall with hard work and excel in my work as a cash processor. l am also eternally grateful to you for giving me this opportunity to apply for this job position . I hope to receive a positive response from you.
Yours sincerely
Katelyn Govender (564)
