To Whom It May Concern:
In my previous position I was directly involved in many aspects of the transportation industry including operations, customer service and sales. I am interested in discussing any positions that you might have available in any department.
The experience that I have consists of close to 6 years in the transportation field, all with the same company. I would like to express great interest and enthusiasm in learning more about any possible openings your company may have.
My overall expertise has been mainly in operations, where I spent the bulk of my employment.
• Operations/ CSR—collaborated and dealt with carriers and clients on a daily basis including, negotiating rates and monitoring truckload shipments from start to finish.
• General maintenance—when needed
I have a clear understanding of the level of professionalism and communication required for long term success, as well as being an organized individual who adapts easily to change and requires little supervision. I believe that my background and approach to business could provide your company with a very highly productive employee.
Enclosed is a copy of my resume for your review. I would appreciate the opportunity to benefit you and your company. I am interested in any position available, and I know that I can not only exceed your expectation but be a huge asset, regardless of the industry.
You can reach me at 616-***-**** or ***********@*****.***
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Pedro C. Castro
