To Whom It May Concern:

I am exploring employment opportunities with your company, where I will be able to put my skills to use in a productive manner, both to help better myself professionally and to help your company by giving all my experience and education and training in my field. Also, what I would like to accomplish, is to help and benefit the company and those whom I will be in direct contact with. I have enclosed my resume for your review and consideration. As I see it, what I have to say about my own accomplishments, is far less important than how others assess my career and my character. Please feel free to contact people on my references for further on what they have to say about myself and the job I have done in the past. Better yet, call and/or email the people whose information can be found on the references for any and all information you may inquire about me from my past friends, employers, and ministry experiences.

I am young, energetic, quality-oriented professional who takes great pride in his work. I strive to be the very best I can be, go the extra mile, and know, that my providing exceptional quality of work-on time and within budget I can add to the growth and reputation of your business. I am confident that I would be an asset to any of your company’s program. I would like to meet with your personally or over the phone to introduce myself and explain further about myself and my ministry. If you have a possible employment opportunity and feel I would be a fit with your company, I would enjoy getting together and talking about it. I am also very fluent in Spanish. I can read it, write it, and speak it. I studied at the National University of Mexico in Quintana Roo. I am sure my valuable Spanish speaking skills will be of great asset to your church as well.

The two areas of strength I most appreciate about myself are: I am able to come up with creative and original ways to do things without destroying the foundation on which the next brick will be laid. My antennas are always tuned to opportunities for encouraging/equipping/empowering people to be the very best they can be.
