Dear Hiring Manager:

I would like to present my qualifications to your attention as a candidate for placement with your company. I feel my qualifications are ideally suited to your needs. Therefore, please accept my resume for your review and consideration. I am confident that my diverse social work, and health care experience will allow you to achieve your hiring objective. I am hoping to learn a broader scope of social work dynamics within this field of practice through Mental Health.

I am versed in the medical field. I believe my skills of diversification within the age population will allow me to assist with all age categories. I am excited about learning different areas of social work within your establishment: hospice, mental health, counseling, therapy, and medical. I have enhanced my medical knowledge with classes in Bio-Ethics, Medical Terminology, Pharmacology and Pathophysiology for diversification of knowledge. I have two Bachelor degrees: Psychology and Social Work with a minor in Medicine. In addition, I have obtained a Master’s degree in Social Work. I believe the knowledge I have acquired in my career lifetime will provide the ground work needed as a Licensed Behavioral Health Professional social worker. I am very goal oriented, proficient, accurate, compassionate, ethical, diversified in cognition, and able to adapt to most work environments. My expertise is in counseling addictions, behaviors and family counseling. I am also versed in admissions, discharges, care plan meetings, hospice and supervision of transportation.

Throughout my 21+-year career in the health care profession, I have developed strategies, which have led to significant results across multiple areas; nursing medical assistant, patient skills and interaction, scheduling appointments, procedures, medical documentation, Medical Records compliance, revenue generation and recovery, and efficient office management techniques. Although my resume will provide multiple details regarding my background and achievements, I have also attached letters of recommendations for additional support of my abilities.

I have built a reputation as a dependable, confident leader, who builds cooperation among individuals from diverse backgrounds, and provides expert-level and hands-on assistance in all areas of patient care. I have substantial experience interacting with local, community, and state health care officials. My reputation and work ethics speak for themselves. I have worked with hospice patients, the elderly, and juveniles within the court system.

My résumé is enclosed to provide you with details of my experience and my Masters in Social Work; however, I am certain that a personal interview would more fully reveal my qualifications and the contribution that I can make towards your firm’s future success.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Tammy L. Spencer, MSW
