Dear Hiring Professional:

Please consider this letter of introduction as an expression of my interest in exploring the positions within your organization. Recently relocated to the city of Fort Worth, TX. The enclosed résumé highlights my experience and accomplishments.

As my résumé shows, I have eighteen years and plus months of human resources experience in steel, foam/plastic automotive industries, electronic manufacturing, administrative, warehouse, and aviation industry. Given the unique nature of the El Paso Del Norte region and southern New Mexico, I have also become innately aware of the warehouse, distribution center, Maquiladora, and manufacturing processes. This has given me a wealth of skills and competencies that I believe have enabled me to understand the balance of representing company interests, while still advocating for employee and contractor’s rights. I would like to bring my knowledge and skills to your organization and contribute to its success.

It is my belief one should always be functioning at the highest levels of performance as a human resource manager in order to represent themselves and their company to the highest standard. This allows for greater business performance and strong relations between employees and management. These are concepts I understand deeply and would like to demonstrate in a working capacity at your organization as I would seek to only build upon and promote even greater success for your organization.

As my work history suggests, I am extremely familiar with the best methods and most efficient means of handling both complicated and mundane human resources operations. From the full spectrum of HR functions like providing safety training and administering employee benefits such as medical, dental, vision, and basic life coverage including 401(k) benefits to FMLA, unemployment claims/hearings, and worker's compensation, I made sure to remain in compliance with federal and state laws regulations while still acting in the company’s and employee’s best interests.

While complex and sometimes discouraging, I am extremely competent in massive layoffs complying with the Fair Labor Standard Act and Texas & New Mexico Workforce Commission procedures. In what I see as a silver lining, this has only motivated me to better serve those who continue to work for the organization I was at. I believe this serves to demonstrate the level of understanding and indicates the level of commitment I performed at. I would like to bring my talents to your organization.

Although practical in nature, my enclosed documents cannot convey the enthusiasm and energy I bring to new challenges. I believe my experience would allow me to excel within your organization. I would appreciate an opportunity to discuss your goals and the ways in which I can help you achieve them. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Sandy C. Navarrete
