Hiring Manager(s)
My name is Nickolaus (Nick) Burrow, and I would truly enjoy an opportunity of a position within your organization, which would benefit from a seasoned veteran (literally) in the ranks, ready to assist and prevail with each new assignment. Using my abilities gained through both security and customer service-related work, I am at a point of readiness to keep the business wheels turning, as they say.
Besides my recent positions at Comprehensive Logistics,LaFontaine and Suburban GMC (new car sales), I have US Military experience in security. I have worked in the recent past in customer service, and even in the sale of something that no one wants to buy: Cemetery Property. I was very successful in the industry, earning accolades and bonuses at every opportunity, while counseling families and earning their trust and respect as a caring professional.
Upon your review of my attached resume, I am hopeful that you will contact me in the very near future to further discuss an opportunity as a Transportation Logistics Dispatcher with your company.
Best Regards and Here’s to working together in the future!
Nickolaus C. Burrow
