To: Whom it may concern:

My background and experience closely parallel the requirements your company demands in the customer service division of your organization. I am sincerely interested in joining the customer service team with your company. I offer a wealth of knowledge and experience in dealing with people and providing information over the phone.

My knowledge includes various computer applications using the personal computer, mainframe, and Novell Workstations. My strong communication skills and the ability to work well with others in addition to being able to work independently are qualities, I am sure, that are essential to any company or organization. My communication skills include good spelling and grammar skills (oral and written) and the ability to work in a fast paste environment.

I’ve had ginger, garlic and curry paste, never fast paste.
