Dear Hiring Committee,
I am writing to express my interest in the Virtual Business Advisor position with Scotiabank in Edmonton. With a background in financial documentation, administrative coordination, and client-focused service, I bring a thoughtful and detail-oriented approach to supporting small business clients virtually and effectively.
I served as a Rent Supplement Clerk at Civida, where I evaluated income and housing documents, maintained precise records, and supported a diverse client base with timely and accurate service. This role required both analytical and interpersonal skills—balancing regulatory compliance with responsive support to individuals and families.
Earlier in my career, I taught business and IT courses at universities in Iran and served as a visiting scholar in Canada. These experiences enhanced my ability to communicate clearly, explain complex concepts, and collaborate across cultural and professional contexts.
I hold a Master’s in Information Technology and a Bachelor’s in Business Administration, with my credentials assessed by WES. I am also certified in FOIP, First Aid/CPR, and workplace safety protocols, and have continued my professional development through programs focused on communication, leadership, and diversity in business.
I am excited about the opportunity to join Scotiabank’s forward-thinking team, providing virtual advisory services to help clients build successful businesses. Thank you for considering my application. I welcome the opportunity to further discuss how I can contribute to your Business Banking Virtual Advice team.
Sincerely,
Ati Haghi
