Application for Employment – Career opportunities
To whom it may concern
I have the pleasure in submitting my curriculum vitae for your review. I hereby apply for any position that may meet my expertise.
The training I received, both theoretically and practically has enabled me to gain knowledge on different spheres of business. I have knowledge of computer skills in all of the Microsoft Office packages.
These skills would prove beneficial to an organization. I am also an open minded, grounded individual who is eager to learn new skills. I’m self-motivated, able to work under pressure and goal orientated.
I grasp well in challenging situations and practice attention to detail to tasks given to me. I’m innovative, proactive and creative.
I am able to avail myself for an interview to further discuss my capabilities.
I hope my application will receive your favourable consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Safwaan Lottering
