Resume:

To Whom It May Concern,

I am seeking a position as a Certified Peer Specialist. I am very interested in working with individuals in need of support. I am confident that my skills and my passions for helping people to progress in their everyday lives will enable me to be a valuable addition to your team. There is nothing that makes me feel better than knowing what I say or do

can help someone improve their way of life.

As you will see from the enclosed resume, I am proficient in a variety of computer software programs. I am experienced in handling general office duties and answering phones cordially and courteously. I have experience in Peer support and have contributed time to helping my fellow peers by facilitating men’s groups as well as being a participate of an advocacy group.

What my resume does not reveal is my professional demeanor and appearance. In a business environment these qualities are of the utmost importance in dealing with people in recovery as well as coworkers. In me you will discover a reliable detail-oriented and extremely hard working individual.

I think you will find me to be an excellent addition to your team. I appreciate the time it took to review my resume and hope to hear from you in the near future.

Best Regards,

James Henderson
