To whom it may concern:
As a printing and sales professional with extensive multi-platform experience gained from two continents, often in bilingual work environments, I am very interested in receiving serious consideration for anticipated position vacancies. After reviewing my credentials, Sir or Madame, I am confident you will find that I meet and exceed your needs.
My relevant experience includes over nineteen years in positions of escalating responsibility with Great Lakes Graphics, Inc., where I established a reputation for earning customer confidence through product excellence delivered with cost-efficiency in a timely manner.
In addition, my proven dedication to detail and time-management was demonstrated both as Executive Director for InterLink Radio in Skokie and as Director for Television Belgrade in Serbia.
Also, I am proficient in several languages and am quite accustomed to conducting business with diverse audiences.
With a sincere desire to explore the possibility of contributing my considerable technological talent and managerial expertise to the production efforts, I will submit my resume and supporting documents for your evaluation and welcome the opportunity for a meeting.
Sincerely
Nebi Nikolic
