Dear Mr. Battle:
I am writing in regard to your advertisement for the Intake Assistant position listed in last week’s Democrat and Chronicle. Having had recent experience in an agency similar to yours, I would like to outline my qualifications for the position.
Over the last thirteen weeks, I have worked as a volunteer at Hillside Children’s Center in Rochester, New York. My duties have focused on interviewing clients aged 12-16 to determine an appropriate placement in our residential treatment center. My supervisors at Hillside have uniformly complimented me on my performance, and I would be very pleased to begin my career in the human service field in a similar capacity.
My Anthropology, Sociology and Psychology courses at ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ have also been helpful by providing me with an appreciation and understanding of issues in cultural studies, delinquency, family dynamics and the social welfare system.
Mr. Battle, I am an individual with a great deal of patience, empathy and enthusiasm. Years ago I made a commitment to use my abilities to assist the less fortunate. As my college graduation approaches, I am eager to start my career in an environment where I can help to make a difference. I will call you in the afternoon of November 27 to determine if we can arrange a time for a personal interview.
Sincerely,
Jane P. Doe
