Dear Hiring Manager,

I recently read your advertisement online and I am extremely excited about responding to the position in your organization, therefore, I am enclosing a resume for your review. Please consider this letter as my formal application presenting my background, education, and experience.

This is the PERFECT opportunity for me because I understand that many factors can influence daily living, such as the body condition of an individual, medication, personal care, environment, lifestyle, and psychological factors. I have possessed a deep passion for ensuring exceptional care and services to others in need within the healthcare and occupational field. During my Acupuncture Residency, my practice consisted of patients that presented with many chronic and degenerative diseases, psychological issues, functional disorders, neurological disorders, and disorders. It was my duty to ensure that their safety and routine care was taken care of as well as being the liaison between other cohorts and patient’s families. In my relocation to a new city, I seek a great organization in which my attributes and skill set will be an asset. I consider myself a "people" person; I a team player, very adaptable, positive, approachable, and organized. As a United States Army Veteran (Sergeant E-5), healthcare professional and business executive, I have dramatically improved and expanded my communication skills. I have visited many different countries and have experienced the similarities and differences among many diverse cultural groups. This has allowed me to relate to different types of people by understanding their ways and beliefs, a quality that will help me work well with other Healthcare Professionals and help me to serve my patients better. I have learned to become not only a good conversationalist, but also an excellent listener. I am a very quick learner who welcomes criticism in order to grow personally and professionally. I also invite research on topics that I may need continuing education on in order to become more of an asset to an organization. I look forward to the opportunity to meet with you to discuss the qualifications I would bring to your organization. May I arrange an interview to further discuss my qualifications? I am available for an interview at a mutually convenient time. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Tiffany Gilliam, DACM, BCND, M.Ac
