Dear Hiring Manager,
I was intrigued by your job ad, and believe that my skills and experience make me the candidate you've been looking for.
I have advanced through many positions at Hershocks as I finished my degree in Business Administration, including Service, Assisting the CFO, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, and Payroll. I have been given more responsibility because of my ability to complete tasks accurately and on time, and my attention to detail. When the company moved from their old “Tiger” computer system to the new ComputerEase Deltek system I was instrumental in facilitating a smooth setup and transition. I developed a thorough knowledge of the system, not just from an accounting aspect, but also in relation to job costing, inventory, contract administration, quoting, and scheduling.
The CFO has asked me to assist him with more complex aspects of the accounting department and to train and supervise the departments where I have acquired extensive knowledge. I have become the “go to” person in the office when someone has a question. If I do not know the answer, I am proficient in finding one. I work very well with others and am always open to listen and help with solutions. You will find me to be a team player who does what is best for the company.
As the Secretary and Treasurer for New Buffalo Borough, I share my knowledge with the community. When asked to take this position, the borough records were not in order. The Quickbooks data is now organized, and all customer accounts are reconciled. Other duties include supervising the enforcement of borough laws, preparing the annual budget, monthly financial reports, posting payroll taxes, annual municipal reports, income, and expenses. This position utilizes my problem solving and detailed accounting skills and requires me to work closely with our auditor each year.
I look forward to becoming a valuable asset to your company and helping you to continue to grow and succeed. Please contact me to set up a meeting to discuss our future together.
Thank you,
