To Whom This May Concern,
I became aware of your need for a Community Relations Marketing Project Manager
through your ad posted online. Due to my educational background, and customer service
experience I feel I would be an excellent candidate for this position.
Having majored in Business Administration with a minor in Spanish I am well
rounded in management, marketing, financial analysis, accounting and economics. In
addition to my qualifications I am a quick learner with a positive attitude and the ability to
adapt to any situation. I am self-motivated and goal oriented.
In my opinion, customer service is the most important function in a company and I am
committed to providing excellent customer service. Throughout my past job experiences at
Tilly’s, Subway and as a Secretary at Spiritual Development, I have used my customer
service skills to not only help English Speaking clients but I can also provide services to
those in the Spanish speaking community.
Due to my educational background, and customer service experiences, I believe I am
qualified for this position. I would be happy to meet with you to discuss this opportunity.
You may reach me at 619-400-7696, or I will call to follow up within the next two weeks.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Karis Cookson
