Dear Hiring Manager:
I am most interested in becoming employed as a Certified Nurse Assistant. Included with this email is a copy of my resume for your review.
For the past year, I have been a full-time housewife and mother. After much soul searching and careful consideration, I have decided to re-enter the nursing field. As you can see, I have many years as a CNA, all of them working in long-term care facilities.
I am a professional seeking a career, not just a job. I am organized, reliable and self-motivated. I like being part of a team, but can also work independently. I would like to meet with you to discuss how I might assist your facility in fulfilling its present needs. Please contact me at 901-***-**** at your earliest convenience to schedule an interview.
Thank you for your time,
Deidrene’ D. Carey-Giles
