Mark Smith
Human Resources Manager
Veggies to Go
238 Main Street
Portland, Maine 04101
Dear Mr. Smith,
I was so excited when my former co-worker, Jay Lopez, told me about your
opening for an administrative assistant in your Portland offices. A long-time
Veggies to Go customer and an experienced admin, I would love to help the
company achieve its mission of making healthy produce as available as takeout.
I’ve worked for small companies for my entire career, and I relish the opportunity
to wear many hats and work with the team to succeed. In my latest role as an
administrative assistant at Beauty Corp, I saved my employer thousands of dollars
in temp workers by implementing a self-scheduling system for the customer
service reps that cut down on cancelled shifts. I also learned web design, time sheet
coding, and perfected my Excel skills.
I’ve attached my resume for your consideration and hope to speak with you soon
about your needs for the role.
Best Regards,
Elizabeth Johnson (signature hard copy letter)
