Dear Mr. Sheffield,
This letter is to express my interest in the Payroll Clerk position you recently advertised in the Gazette. I have superior accounting payroll organization and timekeeping abilities. With five years of payroll clerk experience under my belt I am a top candidate for your consideration.
My current position is serving as the payroll clerk for a manufacturing facility with over five hundred employees. I am responsible for collecting all information calculating taxes and benefits amounts and processing checks on a biweekly basis. By using databases I am able to accomplish all of this as well as to submit tax amounts for deposit with the state and federal governments. My excellent interpersonal skills have allowed me to resolve employee payroll discrepancies and correspond with tact and courtesy. I am able to digitally track earned time paid time off retirement contributions and wages for both hourly and salaried employees. Additionally I am able to track which employees have direct deposits and which receive checks and to have both ready in a timely manner.
Sincerely,
Josue Ortega
