About

Thank you for taking the time to review my CV. I hope that you will find it favourable enough to warrant an opportunity for an interview with you.

I am searching for an employment opportunity where I can contribute the skills and knowledge that I have gained and apply myself to a challenging new business environment.

I would like to be given the opportunity to prove the value I can contribute to your company.

Apart from generally being a hard worker, my work ethic and values like dependability, punctuality, honesty, good time management and multitasking are values I contribute to any working environment or new challenge.

I consider some of my strongest traits to be a willingness to learn and being able to adapt well in any circumstances, whether independently or in a team. I can work well under pressure and have good communication and leadership skills.

I value honesty and respectfulness and try to maintain a positive attitude in all situations. I work well in a team and have often led a team. I am good at taking initiative and self-managing my time and tasks with a sense of urgency, no matter how small or big that task might be.

My determination to do my job to the best of my ability has always been my strong point. I know how to “make the best of any situation” and perseverance allows me to see anything through.

I have a passion for people and helping others is something that brings me joy.

I strongly believe that I could be a good addition to your team because I am reliable and trustworthy and willing to put in the extra time and effort to get the job done. This along with a readiness to learn, I believe is what I can contribute to any working environment.

I therefore kindly ask you to consider my application attached and allow me the opportunity become an asset in your team.

Thanking you in advance,

Kind regards,

Michelle
