To Whom It May Concern:

If you need a hardworking, experienced customer service associate, or a friendly and competent server, I believe that I may be the ideal candidate for your organization. I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you and discuss my qualifications. Some of my skills and experiences include:

· Customer service experience in a fast paced retail environment, which required me to handle many important details, including complying with building codes and privacy laws.

· The ability to effectively multitask and work independently in a variety of situations.

· Attention to detail cultivated during my time as a military journalist, as well as during my time as an office assistant for a finance office.

Attached you will find my resume and a detailed availability chart. I truly appreciate the time you have spent reviewing my application materials. I hope you will feel free to contact me if I can answer any questions, and forward my information to anyone you feel may be in need of a quality employee.


Sincerely,

Sara Kessell
