To whom it may concern:
I have been in the Brokerage/Commodity field for many years. Most of my work experience
was concentrated in the Futures Operations/Back Office Departments.
As per my attached Resume one of my various duties included extensive administrative task.
In addition to being a Customer Service Representative, being cross-trained enabled me to
fulfill multiple tasks.
Being employed in the commodity industry for a substantial period of time, it was mandatory
to be a detailed orientated person as well as one who could work with proficiency under
allotted time schedule.
It is my integrity and professional work ethics that are the core of my character. It is also my
commitment and desire to approach any assignment with enthusiasm and dedication.
I feel confident that my professional background and work ethics would contribute to your
Staff and would appreciate the opportunity for an interview.
Any consideration extended me with regard to a future position will be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully submitted,
