Dear Mr. Yamato,
Wednesday’s edition of the Los Angeles Times was a pleasant surprise. Your ad for a Human Resource Assistant gave me reason to hope that one can enter the field of Human Resources without extensive prior experience. I am very interested in being considered for this position and have enclosed a copy of my resume for your review.
Please consider my credentials carefully since they appear to be a close match for your job requirements. Consider the following highlights:
– B.A. in Social Ecology, University of California, Irvine. Field study
assignment in personal management.
– Honors Graduate, G.P.A. 3.3/4.0
– President of Associated Students UC Irvine
– Editor, student newspaper
– Vice President, Delta Sorority/ Fraternity
As you can see, I appear to have the strong academic and leadership credentials called for in your ad. Beyond these however, I have a high energy level, am very results oriented, and have a strong desire for a career in Human Resources.
I would welcome the opportunity for a personal interview to further discuss my qualifications.
I look forward to hearing from you. I can be reached at (Your number here, with area code!).
Sincerely,
