COVER LETTER
JOANIE-LEE VICTOR
PARALEGAL / PERSONAL ASSISTANT
Dear Sir/Mam
I’m delighted to be applying for the Paralegal/Personal Assistant position at your company. Since the beginning of my career in this field starting from a Receptionist and Collections Clerk at a small law firm to a Personal Assistant for an attorney at one of the largest Law Firms in the Kalahari, it has always kept my interest and I enjoy being in this line of work.
I am a quick and willing learner more than willing to relocate to your area. I have completed my Paralegal Studies (NQF Level 6) in 2020 and have 4+ years of experience within this field. In my current position at KBVS Attorneys, I maintained an exceedingly functional and efficient work environment as a Personal Assistant to one of the partners and attorneys OJ Bester who specializes in Civil Litigation, Criminal Law, Divorce, and Family matters and Collection. One of my personal and greatest skills is problem-solving and I am always on the lookout to improve productivity to enable me to reach my goals and monthly income target.
I am a motivated self-starter who works well independently and with little oversight. My references and Curriculum Vitae are hereby attached. Please feel free to contact me should need any further information from me.
Kind regards
Joanie-lee Victor
